Etat : Muy bueno. : The Ice Age es una novela de Margaret Drabble, publicada por primera vez en 1977. La historia sigue a Anthony Keating, un promotor inmobiliario de mediana edad que vive en Yorkshire a mediados de los años setenta. Tras escapar del bullicio de Londres y sobrevivir a un infarto a los treinta y ocho años, espera el regreso de su amante Alison, que está intentando ayudar a su hija encarcelada en un draconiano país del bloque del Este. Con las deudas fuera de control, Anthony se da cuenta de que él y sus amigos están ligados al motor que impulsa la sociedad en la que viven y que, si éste falla, ellos también lo harán. The Ice Age es un retrato de una Gran Bretaña de auge y caída, y de codicia, y predice de forma asombrosa los años de Thatcher.
