Terry Fallis
Author, The Marionette
My wife and I are in a book club — we have been for 30 years — and we’re reading a book now called A Woman in the Polar Night. It’s a memoir written by Christiane Ritter in 1938, I believe. It’s the story of when she and her husband spent a year up in the Arctic, the Norwegian Arctic. The writing is beautiful. It’s the only book she ever wrote and it’s still in print today. It’s a short read, but you feel like you’re right there on the ice. It’s a tremendous read, I’m really enjoying it.
