Recognised by five literary awards, Book of the Year for five broadsheets and receiving instant acclaim, this is bestselling author Gavin Francis's account of a year as base camp doctor in Antarctica

WINNER OF THE SCOTTISH BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD

Gavin Francis spent fourteen months in one of the remotest places in the world: Halley, a research station in Antarctica. Storm-locked and frozen, it is said to be easier to evacuate a casualty from the International Space Station than it is to bring someone out of Halley in winter.

In the icy emptiness of Antarctica, where one misstep outdoors can mean death but the confined corridors of Halley can drive you mad, Gavin challenges himself to thrive at the ends of the earth. In the penguin colonies, a species utterly adapted to the harsh environment, he finds community, inspiration and joy.
