Runaway Lucy Irvine 9780394545103 Books

Compelling reading about surviving a very precarious teenage life. Perhaps its publication was a therapeutic release for the author with an older mind and with far more worldly challenging experiences behind her.

There is graphic detail for selected memories, some very painful and sinister in their prolongation due to a stubborn denial about the existence of those experiences. The book invites attention as one meanders through a hazy and troubled near decade of rebellion. Her constant escapades reflect running as far away as possible from her split family unit but always returning to them as her only anchor. One wonders if those years were in fact a fierce rejection of a broken world caused by parental divorce and intense unhappiness masked by an unyielding resistance to reality. The feelings were also harboured by older sister Marianne who manifested self-inflicted physical illness.

Long periods of indulgent solitude and soul searching were shared in brooding friendships with like-minded loose brains. There were surprising moments of clarity as she grew older and intellectual development followed, with a constant search for a bond outside the broken family which was never satisfied. She needed treatment.

The mental lurches between extremes of the meaningful and the senseless were a wild struggle to reach an equilibrium which ultimately, she was forced to find the willpower and discipline for. This marked the beginning of a true survivor and eventually played itself out on a desert island adventure (the subject of a book before this one called Castaway).
