Seal Morning by Rowena Farre
At the age of ten, Rowena Farre left the security of her parents' home in India and was sent to live with her aunt in Scotland. During her stay, she drew strength from the isolation of her new life, gaining an understanding of nature and a sense of identity. This book presents the story of her unusual childhood.
'The whole book is a miracle..enchanting'-Times Literary Supplement 'An astonishing book, a gem of the purest ray, serene... This is a wonderful book: and I mean just that-it is full of wonder' -Evening News 'This is a book of real and rare enchantment, simply written about simple and primitive things, without any touch of affectation' -Sunday Times 'Escapism of the best and purest kind'-Maurice Fleming
