Take this unforgettable journey with Laura and return with gems for your own life.\" - Sheri Salata, author of \u003ci\u003eThe Beautiful No\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e An ancestry test suggesting she shared some DNA with the S疥i people, the indigenous inhabitants of the Arctic tundra, tapped into Laura Galloway's wanderlust; an affair with a S疥i reindeer herder ultimately led her to leave New York for the tiny town of Kautokeino, Norway. When her new boyfriend left her unexpectedly after six months, it would have been easy, and perhaps prudent, to return home. But she stayed for six years. D疝vi is the story of Laura's time in a reindeer-herding village in the Arctic, forging a solitary existence as she struggled to learn the language and make her way in a remote community for which there were no guidebooks or manuals for how to fit in. Her time in the North opened her to a new world. And it brought something else as well: reconciliation and peace with the traumatic events that had previously defined her - the sudden death of her mother when she was three, a difficult childhood and her lifelong search for connection and a sense of home. Both a heart-rending memoir and a love letter to the singular landscape of the region, D疝vi explores with great warmth and humility what it means to truly belong.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura Galloway\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1911630679\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781911630678\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atlantic Books (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.60w x 1.10d","brand":"Laura Galloway","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44050648236287,"sku":"9781911630678","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_52b1ad73-da5e-470c-aa5b-8424d8b8caad.jpg?v=1685008436","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/d-lvi-laura-galloway-9781911630678","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
