'A Swallows and Amazons adventure for the modern day by one of the
most interesting travel writers working today' Bijan Omrani, author
of Caesar's Footprints 'A headlong plunge into the deep, dark
waters of the Lake District and its islands. Packed with curious
historical facts, philosophical and literary footnotes' Shaun
Bythell, author of Diary of a Bookseller Robert Twigger, poet,
artist and travel author, is a lover of uninhabited islands. A
lifelong passion for the Lake District led him to embark on a
mission to visit all 36 islands of the region - some little more
than rocks, some home only to wildlife, some the perfect spot for a
night of wild-camping. Armed only with an inflatable canoe, and
inspired by Arthur Ransome, Wainwright, Wordsworth and other
writers of the region, he journeys beyond the tourists and the busy
roads, beneath the surface, to islands both real and remembered.
Here the low tide of the unconscious reveals itself through the
strange flotsam that it leaves on the shore - a new sense of
discovery, about himself and the world we live in.
