Description
The 18 remote islands of the Faroes are home to a close-knit society where just 50,000 people share Viking roots and a language unlike any other in Scandinavia. In this book, we follow the arrival of migratory birds, the over-wintering of the sheep and the way food is gathered and eaten in tune with the seasons. This is an exploration of how 'to be' in a tough landscape; a study of a people and a way of life that represents continuity and a deep connection to the past.
