About the book

An ethnographic interpretation of the hunting life of the Yukaghirs, a little-known group of indigenous people in the Upper Kolyma region of northeastern Siberia. This book focuses on the practical implications of living in a "hall-of-mirrors" world - one inhabited by humans, animals, and spirits.
