About This Item
Synopsis
Howard Norman has lived, worked and travelled throughout the Canadian Arctic and subarctic for many years, writing about language and culture, wildlife and natural history. All his novels are set in Canada, and the first two, The Northern Lights (set in Manitoba and Toronto) and The Bird Artist (set in turn-of-the-century Newfoundland) were finalists for the National Book Award in the US. He has also edited Northern Tales, Folktales from Canada, Greenland and Siberia, and a collection of arctic folktales, The Girl Who Dreamed Only Geese. The Mermaid Theatre Company (Nova Scotia) will tour a drama for children based on the latter in their 1999-2000 season.
