Descriere magazin:
A chilling debut novel about a time in the future when global warming has sent the world into a new Ice Age. After the Snow is a coming-of-age novel, first and foremost--a brutal, tough and sometimes truly transcendent one. --The New York Times Book Review The oceans stopped working before Willo was born, so the world of ice and snow is all he\'s ever known. He lives with his family deep in the wilderness, far from the government\'s controlling grasp. Willo\'s survival skills are put to the test when he arrives home one day to find his family gone. It could be the government; it could be scavengers--all Willo knows is he has to find refuge and his family.

In my twenties I worked as a timber buyer in the Caucasus Mountains of southern Russia, and that work led to travels in Eastern Europe and Armenia. As soon as I step off the plane in those places it smells like home. It may sound strange to say when After the Snow is set in Wales, but really the
