The Rocks Will Echo Our Sorrow: The Forced Displacement of the Northern Sami

Available from Scandinavian Specialties when we last checked. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

Starkly poetic and emotionally heart-wrenching, this dark history is told through the voices of the sirdolaččat, echoing the displacements of other Indigenous people around the world as it depicts the singular experience of the Northern Sámi. For her extraordinary work, Labba was awarded Sweden’s most important national book prize in 2020, the August Prize for Best Nonfiction. 168 pages. 64 b&w photos. Hardcover. 8.5 in H | 5.5 in W
