Mer de Glace (Paperback, New edition)

Winner of the 1991 Boardman Tasker Award for Mountain Literature, Fell's novel, Mer de Glace, examines the life of Will, 30, the epitome of the New Man. Married to Joanna, they have an independent but loving relationship, an 'equal and open' marriage, but above all this is Will's love of mountaineering, until he meets and unexpectedly falls in love with Kathleen, his writing tutor. Will and Kathleen are both taken aback by the intensity of their passion and are forced to re-examine their lives in the light of this new and unexpected love. Fell charts the course of this relationship against the formidable backdrop of the European Alps through a bewildering mosaic of different voices, letters and diaries, as both come to terms with the new course of their lives in this intense and moving novel. (Kirkus UK)

At 30, Will is the epitome of the New Man: successful, a skilled mountaineer, happy in his equal and open marriage. Then he falls in love with Kathleen, and his charmed life begins to fall apart as he discovers the strength of their passion and his inability to control it.
