The Great Alone - Poche

A war-worn family seeks a new beginning in the near-isolated wilderness of Alaska, where their humanity, spirit, and endurance will be put to the test in this epic, unforgettable novel about America's last true frontier. Alaska, 1974. Ernt Allbright, a former POW, comes home from Vietnam a changed and volatile man. When he loses yet another job, Ernt makes an impulsive decision : he will move his wife and thirteen-year-old daughter, Leni, to Alaska, where they will live off the grid and into the great wide open.
There, in a beautiful and remote corner of the state, the Allbrights find a fierce, generous community of homesteaders who help the family learn to live off the land. But as winter approaches and the days turn to eighteen-hour nights, Ernt's fragile mental state deteriorates and their world begins to fracture. In their small cabin, blanketed in snow, Leni - desperate for a place to belong, and caught in the riptide of her parents' passionate, stormy relationship - is about to learn the truth : she and her mother are on their own.
In the wild, there is no one to save them but themselves. And so their fight for survival begins.
