Ordinary Wolves by Seth Kantner
Set against the stark and breathtaking backdrop of the Alaskan wilderness, this coming-of-age novel follows the life of a young boy named Cutuk, who is caught between two worlds. Raised in a sod igloo by his father, an outsider who chose to live off the land, Cutuk grapples with the challenges of traditional subsistence living while yearning for the allure of modern conveniences. As he navigates the complexities of identity, belonging, and survival, he encounters the harsh realities of nature and the cultural tensions between indigenous traditions and Western influences, ultimately seeking his place in a rapidly changing world.
