"Under Nordenvindens Svøbe" by Knud Rasmussen is a collection of stories inspired by Greenlandic culture and the experiences of the Greenlandic people, written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the lives and traditions of the Greenlanders through various narratives, including the adventures of a character named Ojuvainath, a skilled hunter. It explores themes of resilience, tradition, and the relationship between the people and their harsh environment. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to the author’s journey and experiences among the Greenlanders. The opening chapters follow Ojuvainath, who prepares for a journey with his companions across icy waters. Their interactions reveal the challenges they face in their everyday lives and the preparations they undertake for the coming hunting season. Aspiring to reach a settlement where Ojuvainath lives, the narrative captures the beautiful but perilous nature of their surroundings and the warmth and community found within Greenlandic households, setting the tone for deeper explorations of their culture throughout the collection.
