Praise for Names for the Sea
"An infectious memoir from someone engagingly candid about her
temporary homeland's limitations—and her own." —Kirkus
"Moss . . . captures the fierce beauty of the Arctic landscape, the
hardships of establishing family life as foreigners on a local
salary in a nation suffering an economic collapse, and most
interestingly, the paradoxes of the national character." —Booklist
