Excerpt from Love and the Soul Hunters At this point his attention strayed to the balcony where Miss Gloucester was now reading aloud, in a clear voice, to two companions, evidently relatives from their likeness to her and to each other. They were girls of nineteen and twenty-four apiece. One was tall, very elegant, sallow and dark. She seemed languid and kept her melancholy glance fixed on the white clouds of the horizon. The other had auburn hair and a white skin. She sat well in the sunshine, which showed her nose and cheeks almost powdered with small freckles. They were not unbecoming; the purity of her prohle, the thickness of the lashes which darkened her hazel eyes, and her long slender throat were flattered by the bright light.

This is an insightful, highly original ethnographic interpretation of the hunting life of the Yukaghirs, a little-known group of indigenous people in the Upper Kolyma region of northeastern Siberia. Basing his study on firsthand experience with Yukaghir hunters, Rane Willerslev focuses on the practical implications of living in a "hall-of-mirrors" world—one inhabited by humans, animals, and spirits, all of whom are understood to be endless mimetic doubles of one another. In this world human beings inhabit a betwixt-and-between state in which their souls are both substance and nonsubstance, both body and soul, both their own individual selves and reincarnated others. Hunters are thus both human and the animals they imitate, which forces them to steer a complicated course between the ability to transcend difference and the necessity of maintaining identity.

"Love and the Soul Hunters" is the strongest story John Oliver Hobbes has given us. The heir-apparent of Urseville Beylestein resigns his rank to win the hand of Clementine Gloucester, and sets out for the New World to push his fortunes as a financier. There are some extravagancies in the description of the American millionaire, and Mr. Gloucester's wife is a strange study, but Clementine herself is fascinating enough even to win the heart of a prince, and Prince Paul makes a good choice when he prefers such a woman to a kingdom. The book is less philosophical than The School for Saints, and as a story it has more life and more various interest. --The London Quarterly "Love and the Soul-Hunters" is one of the most amusing books published in a long time; it is full of the clever dialog which the author knows so well how to invent, but it is suffused with a grave tenderness, and, from beginning to end, envelopes the reader in a thoughtful atmosphere.... The author's art is exercised with peculiar delicacy and effect.... Every page is rich in these little touches, the little half-lights and suggestions which reflect not so much the practiced as the instinctively skilful hand. Love and the Soul-Hunters' is a book for mature men and women. To such readers it must bring a keen pleasure, touching them by the insight into human nature which it illustrates, and diverting them with its witty intellectuality." --The New York Tribune. This is a tender and beautiful love story.... Mrs. Craigie has treated it with an originality and sparkling wit which carry the reader delightedly to the end. --British Weekly. It is one of the most absorbing of the new books. It is a book that, once read, is destined never to be forgotten. --The Providence Telegram.
