An extraordinary true story of shipwreck, survival and love

Bored of 1970s suburban life, Maurice and Maralyn plan their escape: sell the house, build a boat, set sail for New Zealand. Then, halfway around the world, their beloved boat is struck by a whale and the pair are cast adrift in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Alone on a tiny raft, their love is put to the test. This is a book about human connection and the human condition; about how we survive – not just at sea, but in life.

批評家のレビュー

An enthralling, engrossing story of survival and the resilience of the human spirit (BILL BRYSON)
Electrifying . . . a tender portrait of two unconventional souls blithely defying the conventions of their era and making a break for freedom (Fiona Sturges)
Extraordinary . . . Elmhirst is a terrific writer (ELIZABETH DAY)
An extraordinary survival story… Elmhirst’s reconstruction of their ordeal is riveting, told in illuminating detail
Maurice and Maralyn somehow contrives to be both gripping and elegiac. Sophie Elmhirst's graceful, confident prose is novelistic in its pleasures and profoundly moving in its impact (KALIANE BRADLEY, author of The Ministry of Time)
Amazing (BARACK OBAMA)
A compelling book about a shipwreck, but also as thoughtful a tale about marriage, for better and worse, as you are likely to read
Thought-provoking…compelling…tender… An ideal gift for a friend or family who likes incredible true stories of survival. But it’s also a book about love and hubris. And in that sense, it’s a book for us all. (PANDORA SYKES)
An amazing tale of survival . . . reminds me how incredibly hard it is to find love out there in the world (Tracey Thorn)
This dramatic, profound human story is so beautifully told in calm, thoughtful, perfectly judged prose. I really could not put it down (NINA STIBBE, author of Love, Nina)
