Items related to The White Darkness
Captain Oates, hero of the Antarctic, has been dead for nearly a century. But not in Sym's head. In there, he is her constant companion, her soul mate, her adviser. It is as if he walked out of the Polar blizzard and into her mind. In fact, if it were not for Titus, life might be as bleak a place as the Antarctic wilderness. Then a short family expedition makes her ask the question she has long been avoiding: who but the mad trust for happiness to someone or something that isn't there?

Review:
Geraldine McCaughrean has long been a fine novelist; The White Darkness makes her a great one as well. Wickedly funny and diabolically clever, effortlessly erudite and richly imagined, wryly wise and unsentimentally emotional, this has to be one of the most remarkable novels for children published in the last fifty years. (Nicholas Tucker )
