Northern Voices, now in paperback, offers an multi-dimensional perspective of Inuit culture. The literature comes from various places in the Canadian Arctic and from different times, before contact to the present. The genres are as diverse as the historical representation. There are selections of stories that have been passed on for generations in the oral tradition. Other selections are of poetry, diary entries, short narratives and excerpts from longer works. Taken as an entirety, however, the work can be studied from colonial and post-colonial, gender, and ethnographic perspectives. Essential reading for Canadian and Northern Studies as well as Canadian Literature.
