Rankin Inlet: A Novel (Gaby Press)

In this debut novel, a young British woman leaves home to take a position as a nurse-midwife in a remote community in the Canadian Arctic. Through her diary entries and correspondence, we see through her eyes a remarkable place and the people who inhabit it.

This is a novel that Farley Mowat describes as “...one hell of a good book - one of the few books about the high arctic...that strikes at the core of reality and truth together.” Mara Feeney is a former Winnipegger who lived and worked for several years as an Eskimo Housing Officer in small communities around the Hudson Bay.
