THE COUNTRY OF ICE CREAM STAR - Sandra Newman
In the ruins of a future America, fifteen-year-old Ice Cream Star and her people survive by scavenging in the detritus of an abandoned civilization. By the time they reach twenty, each of them will die from a disease they call posies.
When her brother sickens, Ice Cream sets out on the trail of a cure. It’s a quest that will lead her to love and heartbreak, to captivity and to a nation’s throne, and ultimately into a war that threatens to doom everyone she loves.
Designed in-house, the jacket had to be bold, powerful and optimistic to reflect this novel’s spirited heroine.
Published by Chatto & Windus in June.
