From the Back Cover
A lost dystopian classic, set in a future without death.
Bruno, a young magazine editor, seems to live a charmed life, until he discovers a growth on his neck - the first sign of incurable cancer. But his doctor offers him a unique opportunity: Bruno can choose to be 'frozen down' until medical science has found a cure for his condition. He makes his decision, just after meeting and falling in love with an enigmatic ballet dancer.
Decades later, he wakes up to find himself cured, but the world is now

A lost dystopian classic, set in a future without death, introduced by Sophie Mackintosh, for fans of Jeff VanderMeer, Emily St. John Mandel, and Jacqueline Harpman's I Who Have Never Known Men.'A dazzling, deadpan nightmare.' Kaliane Bradley, author of The Ministry of Time'A chilling, thought-provoking tale about the unexpected perils of eternal life.' Andrew Hunter MurrayYou don't own yourself any longer. Society owns you. Bruno, a young magazine editor, seems to live a charmed life, until he discovers a growth on his neck - the first sign of incurable cancer. But his doctor offers him a unique opportunity: Bruno can choose to be 'frozen down' until medical science has found a cure for his condition. He makes his decision, just after meeting and falling in love with an enigmatic ballet dancer.Decades later, he wakes up to find himself cured, but the world is now a very different place. Freezing technology is now ubiquitous, the pleasures of life have been subtly drained and society has started to fracture. Bruno must decide what he really wants from his life and whether it's worth the cost.Fans of dystopian fiction will love this creepingly claustrophobic classic, which asks all the big questions about ageing, death, scientific progress and the meaning of life.'Whilst grappling with existential questions, Freezing Point is also deeply entertaining, veering from slapdash caper to dreamlike, psychedelic sequences and deadpan absurdity.' Sophie Mackintosh. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR014668658
