The Chukchi Bible
- Used Book in Good Condition
By the celebrated author of A Dream in Polar Fog, a collection of the myths and stories of Yuri Rytkheuâ€™s own family that is at once a moving history of the Chukchi people who inhabit the northern shores of the Bering Sea and a beautiful cautionary tale rife with conflict, human drama, and humor. We meet fantastic characters: Nau, the mother of the human race; Rau, her half-whale husband; and Rytkheuâ€™s own grandfather, fated to be an intrepid traveler, far-ranging whaler, living ethnographic exhibit, and the last shaman of Uelen. The Chukchi Bible moves through vast Arctic tundra, sea, and sky â€“ and to places deep within ourselvesâ€”introducing readers, in vivid prose, to an extraordinary mythology and a resilient people.
