Aprašymas

The unputdownable thing about "Phoenix..." is that it takes you to familiar places you've never been... introducing you to strangers by the shore.

Justin and Linda spent seven years traveling between France, Ireland, Scotland, and their much-loved Cornwall. They lived on board a classic boat which they built themselves, as amateurs - starting with the trees - having lost their house in an uninsured fire.

Brilliantly written, and laugh-out-loud funny - follow them as they forage the low-water shores meeting the strange, quirky, but always entertaining folk who make their living by the sea; voyage with them through the bumps and breakages of learning to handle their craft; and meet the unusual folk who live on board boats frugally at the top of creeks, or lavishly - sailing the seven seas.

Its vividly drawn characters, and descriptions of places you thought you knew will have you turning pages well into the wee hours.
