Northern Latitudes

Northern Latitudes

Lawrence Millman
4.3/5 ( ratings)
Called "the greatest travel writer since the death of Bruce Chatwin, " Lawrence Millman collects here in one volume his personal observations on the northernmost latitudes of our globe. Millman has a remarkable ability to make even the coldest, most remote landscapes seem appealing. Each barren place seems to redeem itself, as he records the bittersweetness of these unforgiving climes. Northern Latitudes reads as a meditation on place and space and the people who inhabit or once inhabited these lands. Here, you will find folk tales gathered and retold, as well as new observations, from a man who finds beauty in the remote, the sublime, the taken for granted. Millman has given us a feast of cultural folklore, and even created a little of his own. This is a book full of subtle, intelligent, and witty observations.
