Welcome to the goddamn ice cube : chasing fear and finding home in the great white north  Cover Image Book Book

Welcome to the goddamn ice cube : chasing fear and finding home in the great white north / Blair Braverman.

Braverman, Blair, (author.).

Summary:

Blair Braverman faces down physical exhaustion - being buried alive in an ice cave, and driving a dogsled across the tundra through a white-out blizzard in order to avoid corrupt police - and grapples with both love and violence as she negotiates the complex demands of being a young woman in a man's land. Brilliantly original and bracingly honest, this book captures the triumphs and the perils of the journey to self-discovery and independence in a landscape that is as beautiful as it is unforgiving.
