In a land devastated by war, a nameless narrator
pursues an elusive white-haired woman in the clutches of a government official
known only as 'The Warden'. Neither will give her up, but an ecological
apocalypse is indifferent to their rival claims. As a terrifying wall of ice
continues its incursion over the land, freezing everything in its path, it
seems that only the white-haired woman is resigned to the fate of the world.
'A classic, a vision of unremitting intensity which
combines some remarkable imaginative writing with what amounts a love song to
the end of the world. Not a word is wasted, not an image is out of place.' Times
Literary Supplement
'Few contemporary novelists could match the intensity
of her vision.' J.G. Ballard
