Afterlands

In 1871 off the coast of Greenland, 19 men, women, and children, cast adrift on an ice floe from their foundering ship, the Arctic explorer "Polaris," endured a six-month winter ordeal before finally being rescued the following spring. In "Afterlands," Heighton provocatively fills in the blanks of the documented history of this event.
