When strangeness is shed and familiar patterns emerge, there is a deep sense of comfort that is the reward for those who venture into new places. When Carolyn Kremers moved alone to Alaska to teach in Tununak, a village on the Bering Sea, she faced the challenge of making a place for herself in the remote coastal town. Struck by both a sense of adventure and a painful longing for the familiar, she was forced to confront what it really meant to feel at home.UpriverUniversity of Alaska Press - The Alaska Literary SeriesAlaskaPoetryElectronic books.811/.6Kremers Carolyn1951-857089MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452493303321Upriver1913905UNINA
