Ice - Anna Kavan

'Few novelists match the intensity of her vision' J. G. Ballard

No one knows why the
ice has come, and no one can stop it. Every day it creeps further across
the earth, covering the land in snow and freezing everything in its
path. Through this bleached, devastated world, one man pursues the
sylph-like, silver-haired girl he loves, as she keeps running - away
from her husband; away from the sinister 'warden' who seeks to control
her; away from him.

'A raw, brutal tale set in a frozen post-nuclear dystopia ... addictive and extremely entertaining' Guardian

'There is nothing else quite like Ice' Doris Lessing

'She is De Quincey's heir and Kafka's sister' Brian Aldiss
