Sobre IBD

Unlike most books of poems nowadays, Goodbye, Ice by Lawrence Millman has a strong ecological bias. The book offers a window on the natural world of the Arctic and its tradition-bound indigenous people. Climate change, inevitably, raises its ugly head in many of the poems, but the book itself is a lament not just for the loss of ice, but for the loss of the Arctic itself. 3

  • The Cannibal Lynx
    Lawrence Millman
    The stories in The Cannibal Lynx were told to ethnographer Lawrence Millman by Labrador Innu (formerly Montagnais-Naskapi) elders in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They document a way of life in the subarctic bush that has now all but disappeared. In them, human beings and animals are of equal importance, so much so that they often marry each other.
