An incredible, well written and important book that manages to discuss both current and generational trauma that Sámi people face. The book feels like arctic winter and grief, the writing creates a vivid image of the environment, and very strongly conveys the mood.

The book is very informative on the current reality Sámi people face, and as a nordic person i'm glad i read it.

I started listening to the audiobook which was a lovely way to get the sound of the Sámi words in my head, but then I wanted to read faster so I switched to the hard copy. This is a fascinating setting and community I knew next to nothing about. There’s so much pain and joy for the characters trying to navigate their endangered way of life. It’s also an interesting and infuriating look at a very different flavor of racism and police complicity than I’m used to thinking about.
