In 1890, Anton Chekhov, already a prominent Russian literary figure, travelled 6,500 miles to Sakhalin island, off the coast of Siberia. Willing visitors to this island were rare; rather, its inhabitants were people who had been sent there: prisoners and their families, guards, soldiers, and doctors. What was it that Chekhov sought on this terrible island? Almost a century later, James McConkey traveled to Italy and researched Chekhov's letters, memoirs, and an account of his journey to Sakhalin island. McConkey recreates that journey, weaving it with his own and telling two stories that reveal the peculiar and hidden forces that shape our lives.

Distant Island is a collection of poems exploring the role of motherhood, female identity and the sense of place."In Distant Island Beth Wunderlich's early poems form a small but beautifully balanced anthology. As they are read, the mind is opened to the spirit of soul. But then, with sharp reality, life hits back. Beth's observations are acute, empathetically relating to life, exploring the oneness of the universe. As Beth says, 'I am rooted stone, soar to astral space through song'. Profundity sleeping in the day to day of life. Marvellous." Del NightingaleBeth Wunderlich, a former teacher of English, is married and has two daughters and a son. With her husband she has lived in France and in the United States. She is a member of the Adult Education Association - Wednesday Writers' Group, the Fellowship of Australian Writers and the Society of Women Writers, and has written poems, short stories and plays.Beth's poems have been widely published, including in Expression, Pen Poetry Anthology, Poet, the Golden Wattle Series, Fin, Mayblooms, and the ABC Anthology - The Tin Wash Dish. Her poems have bee read in A First Hearing on the ABC and at St. Martin's Theatre. She has edited Mayblooms, the Hawthorn Literary Magazine, and continues to write her own poetry.

This thorough and meticulous study, the result of nearly a quarter-century of research, examines the island biogeography of plants on continental islands in Barkley Sound, British Columbia. Invaluable both because of its geographical setting and because of the duration of the study, Plants on Islands summarizes the diversity, dynamics, and distribution of the approximately three hundred species of plants on more than two hundred islands. Martin Cody uses his extensive data set to test various aspects of island biogeographic theory. His thoughtful analysis, constrained by taxon and region, elucidates and enhances the understanding of the biogeographic patterns and dynamics. He provides an overview of the basic theory, concepts, and analytical tools of island biogeography. Also discussed are island relaxation to lower equilibrium species numbers post-isolation, plant distributions variously limited by island area, isolation and climatic differences, adaptation to local abiotic and biotic environments within islands, and the evolution of different island phenotypes. The book concludes with a valuable consideration of equilibrium concepts and of the interplay of coexistence and competition. Certain to challenge, Plants on Islands is among the first books to critically analyze the central tenets of the theory of island biogeography.

What makes a successful London business woman leave it all behind to live on a Greek island? Living in a delightful, English country village, she had everything most people dream of. After a supernatural experience while on a Greek island, Barbara believed that she was to leave it all behind and move to Greece. But why and what exactly would she do when she got there? Seeking guidance at the outset, she had asked God to answer three very practical questions. Why Greece of all places? How should I do it? When am I supposed to do all this? The miraculous answers to those three questions were to change her life forever. She left behind the city banks with the security of a regular income and initially lived the simple outdoor life on a campsite on Paros. Having given away the money from the sale of her house before it was even sold, she had limited funds and no idea how she would live. Did God really tell her to go, or was she just deluded?
