But when one of the most respected herders has a dramatic awakening and dedicates his life to the church, his impetuous son, Ivvár, is left to guard their diminishing herd alone. By chance, he meets Mad Lasse's daughter Willa, and their blossoming infatuation grows into something that ultimately crosses borders--of cultures, of beliefs, and of political divides--as Willa follows the herders on their arduous annual migration north to the sea. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGorgeously written and sweeping in scope, Hanna Pylväinen's \u003ci\u003eThe End of Drum-Time \u003c\/i\u003eimmerses readers in a world lit by the northern lights, steeped in age-old rituals, and guided by passions that transcend place and time.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHanna Pylväinen is the author of the novel \u003ci\u003eWe Sinners\u003c\/i\u003e, which received a Whiting Award and a Balcones Fiction Prize.
