 The Palace of the Snow Queen: Winter Travels in Lapland by Barbara SjoholmA frequent traveler to Northern Europe, Barbara Sjoholm set off one winter to explore a region that had long intrigued her.
Sjoholm first travels to Kiruna, Sweden, to see the Ice Hotel under construction and to meet the ice artists who make its rooms into environmental art. Traveling to the North Cape, she encounters increasing darkness and cold, but also radiant light over the mountains and snow fields. She crosses the Finnmark Plateau by dogsled, attends a Sami film festival (with an outdoor ice screen), and visits Santa's Post Office in Finland.
