And when an unseen fire begins to smoulder below decks, the other side of the world has never seemed further away ...<br><br><b>''Fantastic ... Gems tumble off the pages ... A strong sense of drama ... Much of the pleasure of reading his work is his original imagery.'' Annie Proulx</b><br><b><br>¿A truly noble achievement¿. Patrick O'
