Northern Light is a book by Kazim Ali.(Goose Lane Editions)
Kazim Ali was the child of South Asian immigrants, who unexpectedly spent years of his childhood in the small Manitoba town of Jenpeg, a town that existed because of the hydroelectric dam nearby.

Jacob Umaga caused the home defence all kinds of problems with his drifting spriteliness just behind the front line, and Thomas Young did much the same, albeit in more robust style closer to the thunder. Tellingly, though, they never quite made any of it pay, at least not with the hard currency of a try.
Indeed, their only try of the game, on the half-hour, was a gift from Exeter – which was absurd, given their creativity in the first half. Josh Bassett charged down Stuart Hogg’s laboured clearance and followed up to score. Wasps had what seemed a well-overdue lead at that point, which they held to the break.
