Author Biography: Sam Wright

Book Synopsis

From the last great wilderness, in the Brooks Range of Alaska, one hundred miles inside the Arctic Circle, Sam Wright speaks to an emerging view of nature as an interconnected dynamic whole. Living in a hand-built, twelve-by-twelve cabin, Wright records seasonal changes and his own thoughts as he and his wife spend a year in isolation and contemplation. Here, nature truly seems to be a part of the emotion of daily life. With humor and insight, philosopher-ecologist Wright details an almanac of human experience and arctic allegories that uncover many of life's paradoxes.
