Advance praise for A Wilder Shore:
“Lavish with historical erudition yet wonderfully lucid, A Wilder Shore brings fresh insight into the life of Robert Louis Stevenson and his wife, Fanny, herself a brilliant writer who, in a more just world, would be a household name. Camille Peri writes with such authority and novelistic brio, you'd hardly believe this is her debut. A remarkable achievement!” —Abbott Kahler, author of Where You End
“A love story, an adventure story, two literary biographies in one; A Wilder Shore is these things and more—and it's very, very good.” —Roddy Doyle, Booker Prize-winning author of Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha and The Women Behind the Door
“Camille Peri’s A Wilder Shore is a deeply researched portrait of boundary-breaking bohemians Fanny and Robert Louis Stevenson. With astute critical evaluation of the great Scottish writer and his talented American wife’s works, the book takes us around the globe on their truth-is-stranger-than-fiction adventures. A page-turner!” —Holly George-Warren, author of Janis: Her Life and Music
