This collection of the myths and tales of Yuri Rytkheu's own shaman father is both a moving history of a community of survivors and a beautiful, fantastic cautionary tale. Beginning with Nau, the mother of the human race; Rau, her half-whale husband;and the evil spirit Armagirgin, who attempts to destroy nature's harmony by pitting the two against each other, The Chukchi Bible moves through Arctic tundra, sea, and sky—and beyond—introducing readers to an extraordinary mythology rendered inhauntingly poetic prose. Yuri Rytkheu was born in 1930 in the Chukotka Peninsula of the northeastern tip of Siberia, home of the Chukchi, a disappearing people inhabiting one of the most majestic and inhospitable environments on earth.
