Produktbeschreibung
Things began to go wrong when Frobisher Bay stays ice locked and ships cannot get in to replenish the diesel fuel or bring much needed food into Iqaluit. As Rosa Mama unravels the story of her husbands death, deceit and denial worm their way into a culture and way of life already made difficult by the environment. Most of our Inuit community are happy people, though we older members struggle a little with understanding the Outsiders ways. It is sad that we have come to depend so much on goods from the South, which have to be shipped into Iqaluit during the fall or flown in at great expense. But this summer has been like no other. It is the Summer of Ice, and this is my account of the events that caused great hardship in our family. Abraham and his son, Peter Qaqquasiq, are not happy. Since Peters mother left the family, Peter has been causing trouble and getting other teenagers into trouble, but my grandson, Adam, has become a strong young man because of the problems with him. Adams parents have difficulty relating to him at times, but I thank God that I was able to help him in some small ways. - Rosa Aariak
