“A tender and memorable tale... brilliant in the way it captures the magical nature of how you can believe almost anything when you are forever young.”
“Brown captures brilliantly, as she did in Songlines, the essence of adolescence, the danger of believing you know more than you actually do.”
Margaret has always told her little brother Stanley it's his fault the ice is melting. She doesn't want to live in the Alaskan tundra. She wants to run away and be a normal teenager in Anchorage. Years later, the rift between the siblings has seismically grown. In a fast-melting world, will love be left behind?
