Welcome to Northwords

Here you'll find reviews and commentary on books, music, and cultural history, with a particular focus on Scandinavia and Sápmi, the homeland of the Sámi people. I also write about translation, my own projects, and Nordic and Sámi culture and events in the Pacific Northwest. From time to time I mention other books that catch my interest.

About Me

My photo
Barbara Sjoholm
I've traveled in and written about the Nordic countries and Sápmi for many years, and have published numerous books about the North, including translations, travel narratives, and cultural history. Most recently I translated By the Fire, a collection of Sámi folktales, many told by women, collected and illustrated by the Danish ethnographer and artist, Emilie Demant Hatt (1873-1958). The University of Minnesota Press will publish a new book in February, 2023, From Lapland to Sápmi: Collecting and Returning Sámi Craft and Culture, with stories of Sámi objects and their makers over the centuries. www.barbarasjoholm.com has more about all my books. I also write mysteries under the name Barbara Wilson. See www.barbarawilsonmysteries for more about them.
