The Blue Lagoon is a classic romance novel written by H. De Vere Stacpoole. The story follows two young cousins, Dick and Emmeline, who are stranded on a deserted island in the South Pacific after a shipwreck. As they struggle to survive and adapt to their new surroundings, they begin to develop a deep and intense connection with each other that blossoms into a forbidden romance. The novel explores themes of love, innocence, and the primal instincts of human nature as the two cousins navigate their way through the challenges of living on the island. They must learn to hunt and gather food, build shelter, and protect themselves from the dangers of the wilderness. As they grow older, their relationship becomes more complex and they must grapple with the societal taboos of their romantic feelings for each other. The Blue Lagoon is a captivating and emotional tale of young love and survival in a beautiful yet unforgiving landscape. It has been adapted into several films and remains a beloved classic of romantic literature.In the bottom of the dinghy lay a girl, naked all but for a strip of coloured striped material. One of her arms was clasped round the neck of a form that was half hidden by her body, the other clasped partly to herself, partly to her companion, the body of a baby. They were natives, evidently, wrecked or lost by some mischance from some inter-island schooner. Their breasts rose and fell gently, and clasped in the girl's hand was a branch of some tree, and on the branch a single withered berry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
