Description

What I Remember, What I Know: The Life of a High Arctic Exile

Larry Audlaluk's story is one of loss and struggle, set against the backdrop of a government experiment that promised a land of plenty but delivered an inhospitable polar desert. Born in Uugaqsiuvik, Larry was just three years old when his family was relocated to the High Arctic as part of a seven-family experiment.

With refreshing candour and humour, Larry recounts his life as a High Arctic Exile, navigating broken promises, decades-long fights for return, and the clash of southern culture with Inuit traditions. A powerful and moving account of survival and resilience in one of Canada's most remote regions.
