"A poetic voice of great sensitivity." - Alexander McCall Smith.
Beneath the Ice tells the fascinating, often troubling, story of
the Sami - the indigenous people of the Scandinavian Arctic. A
proud and resilient people in an unforgiving yet majestic northern
wildscape, the Sami have carved out an existence rich in tradition,
where the old ways of reindeer herding, shamanic belief and the
veneration of bears have not yet been forgotten. Author Kenneth
Steven celebrates this unique culture in a collection of essays
that chronicle his own lifelong love affair with the north, and his
own encounters with the Sami. Displaying a deep empathy, he finds a
people often persecuted and a community under threat from modernity
and climate change. But he also uncovers the Sami's idiosyncratic
culture - and captures the very essence of northern spirit.
