Jon Turk kayaked around Cape Horn, traversed the Northwest Passage, and paddled the entire Pacific coast. Yet the strangest journey he ever took occurred when he, a scientist, decided to explore the spirit world and confront all his prejudices. This is the astonishing story told in The Raven's Gift, his first book published in Brazil. In 2000, in the remote Siberian village of Vyvenka, Jon Turk met an elderly woman named Moolynaut, a Koryak shaman—an indigenous people of Russia's far east—and learned about her journeys to the spirit world. A year later, Moolynaut's spirit begged a raven to help her heal Jon's pelvis, which had been fractured in a mountaineering accident and never healed. Turk, unable to find a rational explanation, sought understanding by crossing the frozen tundra where the shaman had been born. With his intimate and sincere style, the author shares with readers his most personal moments, such as when dealing with intense grief and when reflecting on the meaning of life and humanity. \"An unforgettable story.\" - Publishers Weekly \"With The Raven's Gift, Turk masterfully blends emotion and adventure.\" - Vancouver Sun","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47176266449148,"sku":"9788528615524","price":84.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/1d4aff34a8f5eab1c420a4cd3e947712_0c1ee124-4b43-4836-ac40-e83e739b3ad8.jpg?v=1778320115"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/jon-turk.oembed","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
