As the glacial tide creeps forward, society breaks down. Hurtling through the frozen chaos is a nameless narrator, seeking the white-haired girl he once loved, desperate to rescue her - or perhaps to annihilate her. Through nightmarish, ever-shifting scenes, she flees him and his powerful enemy, the Warden. But none of them can outrun the ice.Anna Kavan's masterwork is an apocalyptic vision of environmental devastation and possessive violence, rendered in unforgettable, propulsive, hallucinatory prose.Part of the Pushkin Press Classics series: timeless storytelling by icons of literature, hand-picked from around the globe.With an introduction by Christopher Priest, author of The Prestige and The Inverted World.Anna Kavan (1901-1968) was born Helen Woods, the only child of wealthy British expatriates, and grew up travelling through Europe and America. She began publishing under her married name, Helen Ferguson, having left her husband in Burma and returned with her son to live in England. After a mental breakdown in the 1930s she began writing under a new name, taken from one of her characters, and with a new style. She continued writing for another three decades, while frequently using heroin and undergoing several rounds of psychiatric hospitalisation. She died shortly after the publication of Ice, her most celebrated work.

'Her writing is magnificent' Telegraph'A testament of remarkable, if feverish beauty' Guardian In an unhappy suburban household, a young girl begins to retreat into a nighttime world of her own imagining. As her daytime life deteriorates, she decides to take up permanent residence in the house of sleep, where rooms change position and dream-tigers prowl. But there are institutions determined to control her. Will they stop her coming home to the dark forever?A kaleidoscopic autobiographical narrative, written in the language of childhood dreams once known to us all, this is a work of devastating loneliness and stunning imaginative freedom.Part of the Pushkin Press Classics series: timeless storytelling by icons of literature, hand-picked from around the globe.Anna Kavan (1901-1968) was born Helen Woods, the only child of wealthy British expatriates, and grew up travelling through Europe and America.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An unhappy family returns to Britain from a hot country, filling their suburban house with the glittering hoard they brought back from their exotic sojourn. But the sadness of A, the wife, dulls the shine of their treasure. The house grows quieter, darker. Daughter B learns to hide inside it, in a night-time world whose colours are undimmed by the tense misery of the daytime household. There she sails aquamarine seas on a thistledown boat, ponders the proliferation of dream-tigers, and watches dances and celebrations from the windows of a house whose rooms multiply and change position all the time. As daylight circumstances deteriorate, with her mother's death and B's departure to boarding school, she becomes determined to take up permanent residence in the house of sleep. But there are night-time institutions determined to control her, and night-time battles to be fought, before she can come home to the dark forever. A kaleidoscopic autobiographical narrative, which speaks the language of childhood dreams which was once known to us all, this is a work of astonishing visual power and devastating loneliness. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
