Rose the Sand

Each of us has dreams that we inherit. The work of life is discovering our own. Author reflects on 9 unexpected years spent raising her young family on a small isolated island in the North and the dream she found there. Through her story of breaking with a corporate career and a cosmopolitan life, an inherited dream, and pursuing an existence in the often harsh Nordic wilderness, Lindahl captures the very essence of the greatest personal challenge that each of us meets: to discover that there is no blueprint for how to live your life, that all you can really inherit are tools, and that the great work of life is to chisel your own dream out of the ice. For anyone who has ever felt trapped in a life they don't feel they should be in, Lindahl opens the door.
