✅ Summary

Icefields by Thomas Wharton is a lyrical, atmospheric novel set in the Canadian Rockies at the turn of the 20th century. It follows Dr. Edward Byrne, who, after falling into a glacier crevasse in 1898 and glimpsing a mysterious angelic figure suspended in the ice, becomes obsessed with the glacier and returns year after year to study its slow movement. The novel weaves together themes of obsession, myth, and the human relationship with nature, as Byrne and a cast of characters—including a teahouse manager, a poet, and a storyteller—navigate personal and cultural transformations in the shadow of the Arcturus Glacier.
