Title: Haunting, cold & poetic, snow and ice now a profession.
Review: You need a blanket and a fire to read this novel. It is amost unusual topic. It envelopes you in Smilla's mostpassionate relationship, understanding and awe of nature'smost spell-binding, dangerous and unforgiving elements, snow,ice, glacier and water. She is a peculiar person. But yourunderstanding of snow would help you understand why she is sowell suited to work with it. She is cold, articulate, intelligent,beautiful and especially defiant of Western constraints andbias toward the Greenlandic Eskimo whom she is a part of. Tornbetween two vastly different worlds, snow and ice are the onlything they really share in common, and it carries her throughoutthe ordeal of finding a poor helpless victim's killer. Thecold element is unforgiving, and so is Smilla.
