Lose yourself in an epic naval journey in the final novel in the Booker Prize-winning historical fiction Sea Trilogy by the author of Lord of the Flies.
On the last stretch of its epic voyage from England to Australia, a disintegrating warship inches towards land. But there are still trials ahead, as the vessel is smashed against an ice cliff and blasted by a great storm, while the claustrophobic passengers battle erotic desires, masculine rivalry, and violent power struggles – all experiencing a sea change in their natures. And when an unseen fire begins to smolder below decks, the other side of the world has never seemed further away.
Fantastic! Gems tumble off the pages! A strong sense of drama! Much of the pleasure of reading his work is his original imagery.
Annie Proulx: A truly noble achievement. Patrick O'Brien: The best novel I've read this year. The language fizzes and spits.
Daily Telegraph: Reeks and resounds with authenticity. The epic imaginative enterprise [is] as formidable a feat as the year-long odyssey it charts.
Sunday Times: Golding writes the past as present [with] uncanny skill and tremendous intuition.
