Novel translated into French

The heroine of the novel, Sanaaq, is an Inuk woman who is both strong and sensitive.  No one has captured, as has Nappaaluk, the particular challenges facing an Inuk woman growing up with her family in the Arctic — responding to changes brought by the white man and to the many particular situations, good and bad, that face a northern woman in her domestic and social life.

Translated into French by Bernard Saladin d'Anglure.
