_______________'An epic of love and loss with an intriguing twist ... Tender, romantic and surprising' - The Times'She is a poet as well as a novelist, and excels at depicting the grandeur of the Canadian wilderness, the harshness of the winters, the relief of the thaw' - Daily Telegraph'Urquhart is the most lyrical of writers, handling exuberance and meditation with equal grace' - Sunday Times_______________A sweeping Canadian epic from the Booker-longlisted author of The Stone CarversJerome is a young earth-artist spending a few months on an island in Lake Ontario. But his idyll is shattered when he discovers a man frozen in the ice near the shore. One year later Sylvia, the dead man's lover, appears at his studio driven by the need to recount her story to the stranger who discovered him. A tender and haunting story unfolds which stretches long and wide, a story that begins with Sylvia's childhood and mysterious illness and ends with her lover's tragic death. This deeply evocative and romantic novel is about the fragility of love and memory, and the redemptive power of stories.
