Haven by Emma Donoghue

在七世纪的爱尔兰,一位名叫阿特的学者和牧师做了一个梦,告诉他要离开这个罪恶的世界。他带着两个僧侣–年轻的特里安和年老的科马克–沿着香农河划船,寻找一个与世隔绝的地方,在那里建立一个寺院。漂流到大西洋,三个人发现了一个不可能的陡峭、光秃秃的岛屿,岛上居住着数以万计的鸟类,并为上帝认领了它。在这样一个地方,生存将意味着什么?

三个人发誓要把世界留在他们身后。他们乘坐一艘小船,前往他们的领袖在梦中看到的岛屿,只有信仰可以引导他们。

In seventh-century Ireland, a scholar and priest called Artt has a dream telling him to leave the sinful world behind. Taking two monks—young Trian and old Cormac—he rows down the river Shannon in search of an isolated spot on which to found a monastery. Drifting out into the Atlantic, the three men find an impossibly steep, bare island inhabited by tens of thousands of birds, and claim it for God. In such a place, what will survival mean?

Three men vow to leave the world behind them. They set out in a small boat for an island their leader has seen in a dream, with only faith to guide them. What they find is the extraordinary island now known as Skellig Michael. Haven has Emma Donoghue’s trademark world-building and psychological intensity—but this story is like nothing she has ever written before.
