100 Days on Holy Island: A Writer's Exile
By Peter MortimerThis is an account of one man's self-imposed exile to a remote island off the coast of North-East England. Eschewing the usual historical or religious portrayal, Mortimer gives an account of a confirmed ubanite in a small, tight-knit community cut off twice daily by the tides. Throwing himself into island life, he explores the landscape, people, and myths that surround this remote "cradle of Christianity." He helped in the local school, worked on the land, was voluntarily cut off in the island refuge box, and spent three tides isolated on the exposed outcrop of St. Cuthbert's Island.
