Description

Tété-Michel Kpomassie's journey to Greenland began as a teenager in Togo, sparked by a book that ignited a lifelong fascination. Over nearly a decade, he worked his way north, driven by a dream to experience the country he had read about.

This captivating account of his adventures among the Inuit people is a testament to the power of curiosity and the unexpected connections that can form between cultures. A beautifully observed and engaging record of his travels, it offers a unique insight into the human experience.

Part travelogue, part personal memoir, "An African in Greenland" is a thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of human identity and the commonalities that unite us all.
