A fairy tale for grown ups, which brings together, as only Hoffman can, the fabulous & the real, chaos theory & the irrational everyday moment, in a compelling, haunting & sexy novel, with a sharp edge. The story begins with a little girl who makes a wish one snowy night & ruins her life. She grows up with a splinter of ice in her heart until one day, standing by her kitchen window, she is struck by lightning.

Instead of killing her, this cataclysmic event sparks off a new beginning. She seeks out Lazarus Jones, a fellow lightning survivor. He is her opposite, a burning man whose breath can boil water & whose touch scorches. As an obsessive love affair begins between them, both are forced to hide their most dangerous secrets
- what turned one to ice & the other to fire. The Ice Queen is a haunting story of passion, loss, second chances & the secrets that come to define us, if we're not careful.

We are all agreed that there's a lot to complain about in contemporary society. Boredom, exploitation, an explosion of legislation & interference with our everyday freedoms: central government & big business seem to make life more difficult with each month that passes.

But do we really need to take to the streets to protest? Or would a more effective form of resistance be to take to our beds & quietly recreate our own lives? In this issue of the Idler, we reflect & philosophise on the notion of protest.

CORINNE MAIER interviews three French filmmakers making anti-work movies; we meet the brilliant history professor RONALD HUTTON. JAY GRIFFITHS writes on missionaries; JOHN NICHOLSON celebrates paradise; we ask whether there's any point in going to university & PENNY RIMBAUD reveals the meaning of life. Plus articles on the practical side of idling with advice on treehouse-building & beer-brewing.
