It's a breathtaking story and the fact that it's based on actual events (a woman stranded on an island by herself for over 18 years) makes it even more powerful. Plus, though it's tersely written, it has a certain eloquence. Definitely a recommended read. Hi Vivienne,

Definitely a recommended read.
