 Within moments of watching Bounty unfold on the big screen, acclaimed travel writer Dea Birkett resolved that she would leave for Pitcairn Island. In this startling account of her travels Birkett reveals the bizarre social experiment that the descendants of the Bounty mutineers have lived out for more than two centuries in this South Pacific paradise. "This is a lovely book. A memorable novelistic portrait of ordinary people living in extraordinary circumstances. You don't have to be interested in travel writing to enjoy Serpent in Paradise, you simply have to be interested in life."
--Nick Hornby, author of High Fidelity  (9/98)
