Grade 8 Up. An Eskimo girl and her betrothed, kidnapped from their 16th-century Greenland home, are tortured and brutalized in the name of religion and science. Alternating narratives between the captives and the Norwegian adolescent who guards them poignantly parallel two worlds. Riveting, thought provoking, and demanding.
