Hippolyte's Island by Barbara Hodgson
From the author of The Sensualist and The Tattooed Map comes another fascinating work of illustrated fiction. The discovery of a group of lost islands on a centuries-old map sends modern-day explorer Hippolyte Webb on a quest for vanished lands. His adventures in both the South Atlantic and the New York publishing world make for another mysterious tale that unravels to the accompaniment of Barbara Hodgson's one-of-a-kind illustrations. Note that all of the latitude and longitude details are absolutely factual! And all of the historical details are factual as well-- except the story of the sealing boat landing on the Auroras with Robert Runford, Captain Thomas and the Delight.
Barbara Hodgson is a Vancouver-based writer, photographer, and designer. She is the author of the forthcoming the acclaimed illustrated novels The Sensualist and The Tattooed Map, as well as collaborator on Paris Out of Hand, a fictional guidebook to Paris.
