Excerpt from Stranded in Arcady
When he put his hand to the cramped neck muscle and moved to escape the bedazzling sun reflection, the changed point of view gave him a shock. Sitting with her back to a tree at a little distance was a strange young woman - strange in the sense that he was sure he had never seen her before. Like himself, she had evidently just awakened, and she was staring at him out of wide-open, slate-gray eyes. In the eyes he saw a vast bewilderment comparable to his own, some thing of alarm, and a trace of subconscious embarrassment as she put her hands to her hair, which was sadly tumbled.
Prime scrambled to his feet and said, Good morning - merely because the conventions, in whatever surroundings, die hard. At this the young woman got up, too, patting and pinning the rebellious hair into subjection.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. An early twentieth-century adventure novel following a writer stranded in the wilderness with a young school teacher. With little survival experience and largely dependent on the provisions they brought with them, the pair must navigate the challenges of the unforgiving wilderness, and unravel the mystery of how they came to be there. This book explores the themes of survival, resilience, the stripping away of societal affectations when faced with life's stark realities, and touches upon social issues of the era through the lens of gender roles and expectations. The author presents an exciting and thought-provoking narrative that delves into the depths of human character, set against the backdrop of an untamed and unforgiving wilderness. The book engagingly explores the nature of the human spirit, revealing the complexities and growth that can occur when stripped of the veneer of civilization.
