About the book

These 35 stories were first written down by the Russian educator and linguist, Georgiy A. Menovshchikov during his years of teaching in Chukotka beginning in the 1930s, and are taken from Menovshchikov's 1988 volume, "Materials and Analysis Concerning the Language and Folklore of the Chaplinski Eskimos", published in the Soviet Union. They describe a shared history of hunting, trade, and a tradition of oral folklore. Transliterated from the Cyrillic into the Latin alphabet and then translated into English by Christopher Koonooka (Petuwaq), each story appears in Siberian Yupik and English. On the accompanying audio CD, Koonooka reads six of the stories in Yupik.
