Invisible Islands is twenty-one beautifully crafted fictions, each illuminating a specific island in the mythic Invisible Islands archipelago. Originally inspired by the genius of Calvino and Borges, these islands are memorable, imaginative and emblematic. The real mixes with the surreal, as you travel from beneath the sea from Armaigh to the Brandenburg Gate and on to the Forbidden City, and from the remote holy island of St Eoinean's to the high ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Steeped in real and mythic history and tradition, the Islands are utterly contemporary and international. These elegantly written fables, both humorous and humane, remind you that life is fabulous in the true sense of the word.Campbell, Angus Peter is the author of 'Invisible Islands', published 2006 under ISBN 9780955228308 and ISBN 0955228301.
