A woman in the polar night

Více o knize

In this extraordinary adventure, a reluctant visitor to the Arctic thrives in the awesome and unforgiving landscape. In 1933 Christiane Ritter reluctantly followed her husband to Spitsbergen, an Arctic island north of Norway. For her, "the Arctic was just another word for freezing and forsaken solitude." The story that follows is compelling, the writing matter-of-fact yet magical.
