Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Author Gregory Spatz is distantly related to Sir John Franklin, who was his great-grandmother's uncle. He was also inspired by the traditional 1800s ballad Lady Franklin s Dream which Spatz recorded as a duet with his wife on his solo CD and again on the first Mighty Squirrel CD.The title Inukshuk literally means in the likeness of man. Practically it refers to a stacked arrangement of stone slabs with a human shape pointing towards something of import for a passing traveler. Spatz sees a similar relationship between himself and his novel s readers. Little is known about the true story of Franklin s Arctic journey, but it is likely that his crew survived 5-6 years in the Arctic, suffering from extreme scurvy and ultimately turning to cannibalism. The search for his ships and the truth behind their voyage continues to make news.At once a coming-of-age and historical adventure tale, Inukshuk is a tribute to the redemptive power of love and art. It also contains a powerful environmental message about climate change and oil dependence. As the author notes, there was once too much ice to navigate the Northwest Passage and now there s too little ice for native communities to function.…
