Description
Subtitled: Voices of Its Native Writers. On a gravel spit in the extreme northwestern corner of Alaska there is an Inupiaq community called Kotzebue. Presented here is lively and sometimes poignant collection of essays and autobiographies by nearly 50 Alaska Native writers from this area that tell of their unique way of life as they bear witness to the sweeping cultural changes occurring in their lifetimes. “These are gritty, forthright narratives about late-twentieth-century life in remote Alaska.”
