Poetry. Cultural Writing. NORTHERN LATITUDES can be read as a lyric record of Millman's travels through the North from 1975 - 1999. Millman's prose poems abound with unforgettable stories about boreal ghosts and death ships, cannibals and lovers...With great humor, reverence, and wisdom, NORTHERN LATITUDES is both a celebration of, and an elegy for, a special part of this world that will, sadly, soon exist only in the pages of this magnificent book -- Howard Frank Mosher. NORTHERN LATITUDES takes us far from our ordinary geographical concerns and is resonantly individual. It is a beautiful voyage into relative 'terra incognita' -- Jim Harrison.
