Inside The Book
A sweeping memoir of seven seasons spent living in Antarctica, and what it means to push past the boundaries of the known world and your own limits. Humans have romanticized Antarctica for centuries. To Stephanie Krzywonos, Antarctica is a place to search for answersโand something larger than herself. Hungry for the sublime and haunted over her best friendโs tragic death, Stephanie leaves her entire life behind to live in Antarctica as an ordinary worker and tests the limits of survival. Over six polar summers and one astonishing winter, she encounters adorable penguins, colossal glaciers, and whiteout storms. In old explorersโ huts, the traces of ghosts show the extremes to which people are willing to go to find peace. In this rare account of an Antarctic winter, the sun disappears for over four months, and Stephanie reckons with Antarcticaโs complicated past alongside her own grief and desire to liveโall while auroras, the moon, sunrise, and darkness itself nourish her. Antarctica has come to symbolize despair and hope in a rapidly warming planet. Who truly belongs there? In a wounded world filled with so much loss, is healing even possible? An exquisite blend of memoir, history, criticism, and science, The Blue Hours illuminates hidden histories of life on โthe Iceโ and the gives voice to the nativesโseals and whales, ice and rockโthat make up the extraordinary body of Antarctica herself.
