This essay examines the novel Totenleuchten (2014) written by a German author under the pseudonym Klara Nordin. The main question in the essay is which functions the nature has in addition to the in popular literature so common function as merely a back drop to the plot. It shows that the nature’s primary function is to distinguish and create a difference and a hierarchy between the identities of the three groups of people that occur: samis, northswedes and southswedes. The nature also has a part in the travelogue elements that occur, that close to reality describe places, restaurants and food from the region of Lappland.
