Cast Away: or, the Surprising Adventures of Alexander Selkirk by Francesca de ToresHow big must a man's folly be, that it can cost him the whole of his life? As big as a ship; as big as an island. 1704 Scottish sailor Alexander Selkirk has been abandoned by his own shipmates on a remote, uninhabited island. With little hope of rescue, and wild goats and cats as his only companions, he is forced to confront not only the urgent challenges of survival, but also the troubled, unsavoury past that has brought him here.

How big must a man's folly be, that it can cost him the whole of his life? As big as a ship; as big as an island.


1704- Scottish sailor Alexander Selkirk has been abandoned by his own shipmates on a remote, uninhabited island. With little hope of rescue, and wild goats and cats as his only companions, he is forced to confront not only the urgent challenges of survival, but also the troubled, unsavoury past that has brought him here. What kind of man is deliberately stranded by his crew, to face near-certain death?

On the island, he must use his grit, tenacity and ingenuity to survive. As his isolation deepens, Selkirk's experience takes an extraordinary and often blackly comic turn, for the island's consolations prove as unexpected as its trials. The longer he is stranded, the more Selkirk wonders if he will ever escape the island, and in what ways he will be changed if he does.

A tale of adventure and endurance, isolation and friendship, despair and hope, this gripping, singular novel asks who we are and who we become when everything else is stripped away.

In
Cast Away, award-winning author Francesca de Tores boldly reimagines the real-life story of Alexander Selkirk, the inspiration for the classic novel Robinson Crusoe. The world knows Crusoe's story yet what unfolds on Selkirk's island is stranger by far . . .

Love love love!!
I LOVE this lotion. It's extremely lightweight, doesn't have a strong odor, and it's actually moisturizing! It's light enough to where I use it on my face as well and it doesn't feel greasy at all. No skin irritation or anything and I have sensitive skin. HIGHLY recommend.

Smoother skin in no time
I’ve been using it daily for a couple of weeks, and I really have noticed that my skin tone is more even. I had some dry patches and areas darkened by the sun, and they look much better now. It’s lightweight, but it provides good hydration all day long. For the price, I feel it’s well worth it.

Did not fade my dark spots.
This is an amazing moisturizer. I love how light and creamy it is. It goes on and absorbs well with a light fragrance. Only 4 stars because it did nothing at all for dark spots. While really sad about that I would buy again as I like it that much.

A bit thinner than expected
This body cream feels nice on the skin and absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. It is a little thinner than I expected for a cream, but it still leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized. The scent is light and pleasant too.

Lightweight daily moisturizer for the softest skin (bonus: incredible subtle scent)
Already repurchased, will absolutely continue to be a staple in my routine. Smells amazing, lightweight texture that easily absorbs into my skin, and leaves my skin feeling so soft even a full 24+ hours later. Incredible price for the amount and quality of product. Dove you did your big one with this one.
