Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. This is a beautifully written book but assumes the reader knows an awful lot about sea kayaking which often left me scrambling to look things up or frustrated that I didn't understand. Most of what I enjoyed about this book was the way the people of Ireland welcomed Mr Duff along the way. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

A sea kayak battles the freezing Irish waters as the morning sun rises out of the countryside. On the western horizon is the pinnacle of Skellig Michael-700 feet of vertical rock rising out of exploding seas. Somewhere on the isolated island are sixth-century monastic ruins where the light of civilization was kept burning during the Dark Ages by early Christian Irish monks. Puffins surface a few yards from the boat, as hundreds of gannets wheel overhead on six foot wing spans. The ocean risesviolently and tosses paddler and boat as if they were discarded flotsam. This is just one day of Chris Duff's incredible three month journey. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
