The book demonstrates the ambiguity in representing North Greenland and the Inughuit in Knud Rasmussen's expedition accounts: The New People and My Travel Diary. The reading of both works is founded on postcolonial critical theory including colonial discourse analysis and Homi Bhabha's notion of ambivalence.
