CASTAWAY
 |
'Writer seeks "wife" for a year on a tropical island.' The opportunity to escape from it all was irresistible. Lucy Irvine answered the advertisement - and found herself alone on a remote desert island with a 'husband' she hardly knew. Lucy Irvine fell in love with the seductive, if cruel, beauty of that untouched Eden, whose power to enslave and enchant her never slackened throughout the whole of her amazing adventure. Uncompromisingly candid and sometimes shocking, Castaway is her compulsively readable account of a desert island dream which threatened to turn into a nightmare of illness, thirst and personal apathy. |

FARAWAY
 |
Seventeen years after the events described in her best-selling book Castaway, Lucy Irvine was travelling again. With her three sons, she went to live for a year on remote Pigeon Island in the farthest corner of the Solomons. The invitation had come from an intrepid eighty-year-old, Diana Hepworth, who, in 1947, set sail from England and embarked on a hazardous journey to find a faraway paradise where she and her husband Tom could raise a family. Faraway is a tale of two extraordinary worlds in which tragedy, heroism, danger and pure joy combine in one remarkable story. |

RUNAWAY
 |
"Snuggled in the big bed, I reflected...I had never walked out of school before or left home. With those two doors closed behind me a whole new set had opened and there were different lives going on behind each one. I pulled the covers higher, revelling in the warmth but knowing that tomorrow I would have to come up with a plan. Beyond the borrowed doss-bags and the Bed and Breakfasts of Littlehampton was a big, mysterious world I had chosen to confront alone..." Castaway was the extraordinary best-seller about Lucy Irvine's year on a desert island. Runaway is the equally remarkable story of her life before that. Runaway is unfortunately currently out of print, however you can locate second hand copies at abebooks.com. Search for "Lucy Irvine" and "Runaway". |
