Maggie Gee 
The Ice People [EPUB ebook] 

Ủng hộ

It’s the middle of the twenty-first century, and the next Ice Age has suddenly sent global warming into reverse. Saul is one of the Ice People, the threatened peoples of the northern hemisphere, who, watching their world freeze over, try to move south towards the equator… ‘Excellent … intelligent, driven, imaginative, obsessive yet still gracious, one of our best … Exciting stuff.’ Fay Weldon ‘Ambitious and subtle… She writes elegantly, unsentimentally, expertly… The Ice People works persuasively as science fiction, and is truthful about our emotional lives.’ Independent ‘Infused with poetic intensity … this is a gripping fictional realisation of what we fear: the death of civilisation. Maggie Gee achieves her apocalyptic vision without the clank of hardware and intergalactic wars. Her detail is precise and controlled and her beautifully orchestrated whisper of redemption is rooted in eternal myth.’ Elizabeth Buchan The Times ‘An intriguing novel of ideas, fully fleshed out … Classy science fiction.’ Mail on Sunday ‘A remarkable novel… up there with Orwell and Huxley.’ Jeremy Paxman ‘A gem of a book.’ Rose Tremain ‘A rattling good page-turning yarn.’ George Melly ‘A fantastic book’ Mariella Frostrup
