Yuri Rytkheu
Born in Uelen, a village in the Chukotka region of Siberia, Yuri Rytkheu has sailed the Bering Sea, worked on Arctic geological expeditions, and hunted whale in Arctic waters, in addition to authoring over 10 novels and collections of stories. In the late 1950's Yuri Rytkheu emerged not only as a writer of considerable literary talent, but as the unique voice of a small national minority — the Chukchi people, a race residing in one of the most majestic and inhospitable environments on Earth. His novels and short stories about Chukotka introduced generations of readers to their history and mythology. A bestseller in Germany and Switzerland, Rytkheu's works are also well-loved in Japan, Finland, Denmark, and France.
