Meet Kenneth R. Rosen, a 2024 COURAGE to WRITE Writer of Note working on his nonfiction book, Land of the North Winds.
Land of the North Wind (Simon & Schuster, 2025) takes readers across the circumpolar north to chronicle the dual impacts of climate change and the new cold war.
Kenneth R. Rosen is the author of “Troubled,” a New York Times Editors’ choice, and “Bulletproof Vest.” He is the recipient of a Kurt Schork Freelance Award and was twice a finalist for the Livingston Award for his reporting from Syria and Iraq.
“The reporting and writing in “North Wind” hope to reveal the High North region in a light few rarely see, taking readers inside a polycrisis affecting the lives of millions inside and outside the Arctic Circle to impart how much a melting world brings not only heat and rising seas, but also war.”
