Nancy Campbell Knihy

Jedinečná cesta za objavovaním snehu v rozmanitých kultúrach Sneh robí známe miesto cudzím, prepisuje realitu, na určitý čas zakrýva, odieva, očisťuje alebo zastavuje krajinu. Tlmí. Zahaľuje. Snehová vločka, ktorá dopadne na vrchol pohoria v Afrike, sa môže roztopiť a vypariť a neskôr opäť zamrznúť a spadnúť na jabloňové sady v Kašmíre a opäť sa roztopiť a spadnúť ešte najmenej päťdesiat ráz. Práve tak jedno slovo pre sneh ponúka prístup k novým miestam, cestu porozumenia, po ktorej sa treba vydať. Každý jazyk má svoje vlastné výrazy pre páperové vločky, ktoré sa znášajú z oblohy. Spisovateľka a cestovateľka po Arktíde Nancy Campbell načiera hlboko do významov päťdesiatich slov pre sneh, pričom každé z nich ponúka celý svet mýtov a príbehov. Päťdesiat slov pre sneh je cesta za objavovaním snehu v kultúrach po celom svete prostredníctvom rôznych jazykov. Hoci mnohé z jazykov v tejto knihe, napríklad španielčinu či urdčinu, možno počuť po celom svete, iné, napríklad inupiacký dialekt z Walesu na Aljaške, si pamätajú najmä starší ľudia v relatívne malých komunitách.
