关于此电子书

A permanently frozen London is the setting for Roma Tearne’s 'thoughtful exploration' [The Guardian] of survival in a dystopian near-future.

'Tearne reminds us that, woven into London's cosmopolitanism, are memories of places to which individuals can never return' Brixton Review of Books 

A permanently frozen London is the setting for this harrowing yet lyrical tale of survival in a dystopian near-future. Through endless years of glacial winter, artist Hera has known loss. Her one comfort has been her relationship with Raphael. As the thaw begins, can she track down her elusive lover?
