For readers of Educated, the incredible story of how the adventure of a lifetime became one child''s worst nightmare - and how determination helped her escape.
At the age of seven, Suzanne''s parents took her and her brother on what the children thought would be a long summer holiday recreating James Cook''s third voyage. This became a ten-year way of life for their family, living entirely on their boat, Wavewalker, through storms, shipwrecks, emergency hospitalisations, isolation and very limited schooling. No one else knew where they were most of the time and no state had any active interest in what was happening to the children.
Suzanne fought her parents, longing to return to England and to education and stability. This memoir covers her astonishing upbringing, a survival story of a child in dire circumstances deprived of safety, friendships, schooling, occasionally drinking water... At eighteen, through determination and resilience, Suzanne earned a place at Oxford university and returned to the UK.
