In this book, Ramesh Ramdoyal, the author of the locally best-selling trilogy - Tales From Mauritius, More Tales From Mauritius and Further Tales From Mauritius - once again delights us with nine original stories, each more captivating than the other.This time the author does not restrict himself to the island of Mauritius. He goes further afield. In Castaway, the action takes place in the remote island-archipelago of Saint Brandon with its unique flora and fauna. This is the place where a fugitive is hiding not only from justice, but also from the demons that have followed him in his solitary confinement.In Fishy Stories, he makes us discover the underwater wonderland around the island, and shares with us a dramatic spear-fishing experience, and a quaint story about a fisherman, his wife and an octopus!'Monarch of the Forest' is a beautiful story of a hunter who loves hunting and hates killing. Just as the author's 'fishy' stories usher you into the exciting world of a Mauritian fisherman, 'Monarch of the Forest' ushers you into the heart of the Mauritian forest land and makes you share the thrills and heartaches of a passionate hunter. In Letter to My Beloved, we follow a youth to Oxford in a world that is both fascinating and alienating where he discovers with a shock that love can have many different forms. The Struggle Is Never Over is the authentic story of one of the greatest freedom fighters of Mauritius against which the evolution of the island can be understood. The Minister And The Artist is the hilarious story of a well-meaning politician who has to reckon with the inefficiency of his own staff to salvage his political career.Jonah is the real story of a sensitive teenager who comes into his own after he is sent down from a 5-star college. In Dancing in the Rain, we share the tribulations of an ageing couple in a fast paced environment, outside their comfort zone; whilst A New Beginning follows a group of survivors to a mysterious planet that holds out the promise of a better world.The stories are interesting in their own right, but when taken together, they reveal the soul of an island which is unique and fascinating. Ramesh Ramdoyal confirms once again his standing as one of the best story-tellers of Mauritius.

Robinson Crusoe is one of the most famous literary characters in history, and his story has spawned hundreds of retellings. Inspired by the life of Alexander Selkirk, a sailor who lived for several years on a Pacific island, the novel tells the story of Crusoe’s survival after shipwreck on an island, interaction with the mainland’s native inhabitants, and eventual rescue. Read variously as economic fable, religious allegory, or imperialist fantasy, Crusoe has never lost its appeal as one of the most compelling adventure stories of all time. In addition to an introduction and helpful notes, this Broadview Edition includes a wide range of appendices that situate Defoe’s 1719 novel amidst castaway narratives, economic treatises, reports of cannibalism, explorations of solitude, and Defoe’s own writings on slavery and the African trade. A final appendix presents images of Crusoe’s rescue of Friday from a dozen of the most significant illustrated editions of the novel published between 1719 and 1920.

Few people have been in the unique position of being able to observe and record the dramatic changes that have taken place in the islands of Fiji over the past 80 years than fourth-generation citizen, Daryl Tarte. He writes emotively, in great detail, about his personal experience of growing up on a remote island during the colonial era, when races were segregated, and white people lived an elite existence. Following independence, he has been personally involved with many of the key economic, political and social activities that have evolved and enabled the nation to progress during the 20th century. These include the sugar industry, tourism, commerce and industry, religion, the media, women and of course, the coups. His observations into the complexities of leadership in these areas of national development are fascinating and perceptive. Much of the story is told through the eyes of the many people of all races with whom he has interacted. Fiji is made up of over 300 unique islands. Tarte has been to many of them, and in a final chapter he gives an insightful commentary of how different they all are.
