Synopsis "Arctic Dreams"

Winner of the National Book Award

"Lopez is...the most important living writer about wilderness...[Arctic Dreams is] his masterpiece" —The Guardian

This iconic, groundbreaking exploration of the Far North is a classic of natural history, anthropology, and travel writing.

The Arctic is a perilous place. Only a few species of wild animals can survive its harsh climate. In this modern classic, Barry Lopez explores the many-faceted wonders of the Far North: its strangely stunted forests, its mesmerizing aurora borealis, its frozen seas. Musk oxen, polar bears, narwhals, and other exotic beasts of the region come alive through Lopez’s passionate and nuanced observations. And, as he examines the history and culture of its indigenous communities, along with parallel narratives of intrepid, often underprepared and subsequently doomed polar explorers, Lopez drives to the heart of why the austere and formidable Arctic is also a constant source of breathtaking beauty, mystery, and wonder.

Written in prose as pure as the land it describes, Arctic Dreams is a timeless meditation on the ability of the landscape to shape our dreams and to haunt our imaginations.
