Ice Diaries by Jean Mcneil
British Canadian novelist Jean McNeil spent a year as writer-in-residence with the British Antarctic Survey, and four months on the world's most enigmatic continent - Antarctica. Access to the Antarctic remains largely reserved for scientists, and it is the only piece of earth that is nobody's country. Ice Diaries is the story of McNeil's years spent in ice, not only in the Antarctic but her subsequent travels to Greenland, Iceland, and Svalbard - a haunting story of the relationship between beauty and terror, loss and abandonment, transformation and triumph.Jean McNeil is the author of 10 books, five of which are novels. Her work has been shortlisted for the Governor General's Literary Award, the Journey Prize, the National Magazine Awards, and the Pushcart Prize, and she has won the PRISM International competition twice. She is a co-director of the University of East Anglia's Masters in Prose Fiction program. She is originally from Nova Scotia and now lives in London, UK. She has lived and traveled extensively in southern and east Africa.
