A collection of 51 haikus from Antarctica which will fall on your senses like a snowflake buds, blooms, and vanishes, a seamless delight of viewing and feeling; each moment is a journey. 'From the Land of Mist and Snow' is an attempt to get the reader close to the southernmost continent of the world, its beautiful biodiversity, and its conitnuous decay in the face of climate change. Since facts and figures can only tell you one part of the climate change story, this collection of haikus is aimed at stirring your heart with the beauty of antarctic wildlife, its magic and its monotony, a poetic narrative of climate change set in this winter wonderland.

After an adventurous and climate change sensitive expedition to Antarctica in 2018 with the 2041 Foundation (headed by Sir Robert Swan, the first man to have walked both the North and South Pole), the author pens all the beautiful moments she collected in her time in Antarctica; from crossing the dangerous Drake Passage to observing the Gentoo and Chinstrap penguin colonies in Antarctica, from the scenic, snow blanketed landscapes of Fish Islands to the treacherous history of the Deception Island and Whaler's Bay, every haiku is a precious moment plucked from Antarctica and preserved in 17 syllables.

Immerse, engage, and experience Antarctica through the serenity of haikus and beautiful illustrations in this collection.
