Publisher Description: Tuumarsi is a realistic depiction of the struggle for survival. A famine causes a family to pick up and relocate to fairer hunting grounds. The psyche and humor of the people is reflected through Nielsen's own experiences with them. The struggle among the settlement members to make their lives better illustrates what was to become Greenland's desire for sovereignty from Denmark. |
