Melanie Challenger (Counterpoint)
Analyzing our "estrangement from nature" in the 20th century, Challenger's moving and lyrical first nonfiction book meditates on big picture questions as she travels from a writer's solitary cabin on England's Ding Dong Moor to Antarctica with the British Antarctic Survey, back to the North Yorkshire town of Whitby and on to the tundra of the Arctic.
