Best Selling Books by JOHN FOWLES

John Fowles wrote poetry throughout his lifetime, but more during the 1950s and 1960s than later. This book presents a selection of his poetic work opening with two sequences dating from the early part of his career, two of which draw on his time living in Greece and his interest in Greek mythology.

Poetic photographic interpretations of island landscapes complement Fowles''s exploration and celebration of the mysteries, silences, mazes, and attractions of Britain''s Scilly Islands and all small islands

Nicholas Urfe, a young Englishman who accepts a teaching position on a remote Greek island, befriends a local millionaire; but the friendship soon evolves into a deadly game and Nicholas finds that he must fight not only for his sanity but for his very survival.

The complex Victorian world is opened to time and imagination.
