Castaway Review"Castaway" captivated my imagination from the very first page. The story of the constantly evolving relationship between the author Lucy Irvine and Gerald Kingsland touched my heart and soul. Starting in mid 1981 these two people, who met through a personals ad in a newspaper, take on the challenge of recreating a Robinson Crusoe experience on a deserted island. Can modern man/woman survive? Lucy Irvine excellently tracks two symultaneous stories throughout the book - what their day-to-day quest was like and the interpersonal relationship between Lucy and G. The emotions that leap off the pages through Lucy's unique statement and explanation writing style will make you feel like you are in her skin as she runs the gamut of the highs and lows in their adventure. Be sure to obtain a copy of the book that includes the maps AND pictures as they will help clarify statements in the text. I'm surprised this isn't required reading on every college campus as "Castaway" could be the handbook for today's women of great strength, independence and determination. A decade before the "age of women" Lucy Irvine demonstrates how an intelligent, strong and determined woman uses the power of her mind and body to not only keep herself alive but her man as well. She is the ultimate wind beneath his wings. Gerald Kingsland was convinced that a man and woman could find nirvana if they were left alone on a deserted island for at least a year to develop their relationship no matter how different they were to begin with. In 1996 in a newspaper interview while he was in London looking for a partner to accompany him on his 8th or 9th attempt to prove his theory Gerald called himself the "sex pest of the South Seas". Lucy Irvine was the only partner that ever survived an entire year with him. Castaway is the incredible story of how she did it. The only unfortunate thing is that "Castaway" feels like the second book in a trilogy with Lucy's "Runaway" being the first. Sure would like to see the remainder of her life story with a third book focused especially on her transition back to civilization after Tuin and what long-term effect her relationship with Gerald had on her future relationships. Was this the book that inspired "Castaway" on the BBC and "Survivor" on CBS? See what you think. The book is unfortunately out-of-print but more than worth the hassle of finding it wherever you can.Castaway Overview
