Summary: "Extremes of heat and cold - across countries, through time and in feelings - thread through these stories: a researcher plummets into a crevasse and finds the unexpected; a child factory worker dreams of the lives of Westerners whose economies are enslaving her; school girls struggle with secrets about an addict; and two women venture into a deathly melt stream. As if on ice, everyone is constantly moving, falling and sliding onto surprising paths"--Back cover.
