Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas and essays from the world s greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith.

Set in a frozen world that is gradually being devastated by ever-encroaching ice, Anna Kavan s masterwork follows one man s pursuit of a mysterious silver-haired girl to the ends of the earth; to the end of everything.

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

Anna Kavan was born in 1901, the only child of a wealthy British family. She began publishing under her married name, Helen Ferguson. During this time, she was introduced to heroin by her tennis coach in order to improve her game. She suffered a breakdown after the end of her second marriage, and was committed to an institution to treat both her depression and her addiction. She published her two best-known novels after this experience, Asylum Piece and Ice, under Anna Kavan , the name of a character in an earlier novel. She died of heart failure at her home in London in 1968.
