Dan Bittner narrates Seth Kantner’s eloquent evocation of life in the Alaskan outback in the clearest of tones and an assured style. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss how Bittner’s voice expresses the elemental beauty and fierce exigencies of growing up in the wilds of the tundra, accompanied by the planet’s vastest herd of caribou. Kantner bears witness to how his home state—and especially the noble arctic caribou—are being challenged by modernity and climate change. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile’s website.
