Utopia and Atlantis were islands, and islands have captured the imaginations of writers and artists for centuries. In 1719, Daniel Defoe published his tale of a castaway on a desert island, \u003cem\u003eRobinson Crusoe\u003c\/em\u003e, one of the first great novels in the history of English literature and an instant bestseller. Defoe's tale combined the real and the imagined into a compelling creative landscape, establishing a whole literary genre and unleashing the power of islands in storytelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo celebrate the tercentenary of the publication of \u003cem\u003eRobinson Crusoe\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eArchipelago\u003c\/em\u003e presents a truly international range of leading illustrators who imagine they too have washed up on their own remote island. In specially created maps, they visualize what their island looks like, what it's called, and what can be found on its mythical shores. In a panoply of astonishingly creative responses, we are invited to explore a curious and fabulous archipelago of islands of invention that will beguile illustrators, cartographers, and dreamers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Huw Lewis-Jones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0500022569\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780500022566\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.30h x 8.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Huw Lewis-Jones","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43996768338175,"sku":"9780500022566","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c2a803e2-1e7d-4435-b7b3-cf806a7a0fa7.jpg?v=1683343575","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/archipelago-huw-lewis-jones-9780500022566","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
