Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book transports the reader to the exotic shores of a fantastical island where social customs are as intriguing as they are strange. The plot revolves around a young English sailor, Benjamin Bowbell, whose ship is wrecked on this island. Bowbellââ â¢s unexpected arrival coincides with a royal decree that mandates the islandââ â¢s princess, Irza, must marry the first handsome stranger to land on its shores. Bowbell is thrust into a world of political intrigue, clashing cultures, and a darkly comical matrimony law where the surviving spouse is buried alive with their deceased partner. The author weaves a story that deftly blends high-stakes romance, political satire, and a playful exploration of cultural differences. The bookââ â¢s humor arises from the juxtaposition of English pragmatism and the islandââ â¢s eccentric traditions, while simultaneously exploring the darker consequences of blind adherence to custom. In the face of a seemingly inescapable destiny, characters struggle to navigate the constraints of fate and the weight of tradition, ultimately questioning the nature of love, loyalty, and the very essence of freedom. The authorââ â¢s vibrant language and the bookââ â¢s whimsical premise offer a unique and thought-provoking exploration of the power of love and the enduring resilience of the human spirit. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334489495_0
