A voyage of discovery into the life of a remote aboriginal community in the Siberian Arctic, where the reindeer has been a part of daily life since Palaeolithic times. The reindeer, along with the dog, was probably the first species to be drawn into a close relationship with man. This book, by an eminent British anthropologist, is the beautifully written story of how that relationship works & of the intimacy between the nomadic reindeer people & the landscape they inhabit. What to the Western eye looks like a vast, uninhabited Arctic wilderness is in fact filled with animals, humans & spirits -- & the memory-traces of their interactions down the ages. No other Western author has had such access (since before the Cold War ended) to these distant regions of the Siberian taiga. Living & travelling with the reindeer people over a period of a dozen years, Piers Vitebsky has seen how, first, Communism & collectivisation threatened the way of life of the nomadic tribesmen, & then the marketplace continued to transform their existence. Through all the changes of the late 20th-century the reindeer has retained its central place in the physical & spiritual life of the people. The book is also a celebration of human love at an elemental level. ...
