ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Great Alone" by Kristin Hannah follows the Allbright family as they move to the remote wilderness of Alaska in the 1970s, seeking a fresh start from societal pressures and Ernt's struggles with PTSD after the Vietnam War. The harsh realities of life in the Alaskan wilderness test their resilience and the bonds of family. As they confront isolation, violence, and personal demons, Leni, the young daughter, discovers her strength and forms a deep connection with the land and a local boy, Matthew. The novel explores themes of survival, love, and the complexities of family dynamics amidst adversity.
