520    "In 1916, Sven Ormson leaves a restless life in Stockholm 
       to seek adventure in Svalbard, an Arctic archipelago where
       darkness reigns four months of the year and he might 
       witness the splendor of the Northern Lights one night and 
       be attacked by a polar bear the next. But his time in a 
       mining camp ends when an avalanche nearly kills him, 
       leaving him disfigured, after which Sven flees even 
       farther, to an uninhabited fjord. There, with the company 
       of a loyal dog, he builds a hut and lives alone, testing 
       himself against the elements. The teachings of a Finnish 
       fur trapper, along with encouraging letters from his 
       family and a Scottish geologist who befriended him in the 
       mining camp, get him through his first winter. Years into 
       his routine isolation, the arrival of an unlikely visitor 
       salves his loneliness, sparking a chain of surprising 
       events that will bring Sven into a family of fellow 
       castoffs that determine the course of the rest of his 
       life. Written with wry humor and in prose as breathtaking 
       as the stark landscape it evokes, The Memoirs of Stockholm
       Sven is a testament to the strength of our human bonds, 
       reminding us that eve in the most inhospitable conditions 
       on the planet, we are not beyond the reach of love."  --
