Read the excerpt from "Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy" He had seen the island from the far ledges, standing with his father and Sheriff Elwell and Deacon Hurd and everyone else important in the town. A stony beach, a stony ledge or two, some pines-- a few toppled over with their heads in the water, a few tilted. most of them still straight. There had seemed nothing on the island that would set anyone but a gull to wishing that he could live there.

But coming on it now, from the water, with Lizzie stroking and angling her way to the point, Turner felt as if he was on the brick of discovery. . . Turner felt the world moving slowly and anciently beneath him, and he began to sway back and forth with the waves, with the trees, with the rolling globe itself.
