A lovely story combining an Alaska homestead with a Russian fairy tale. Beautiful and spare writing - looking forward to more by this author.

Lovely, sad, a perfect book for the middle of winter. Infertility and loss are big themes. But I didn’t find it excessively depressing. The land was like a character itself.
