Beneath the Lightning and the Moon
desert island, survival
Four people stranded on a desert island: which, if any, will survive - the ex-Borstal boy, the nice girl from the Home Counties, the nasty millionaire, or the gentle scholar trying to keep the peace between them? Overhead is the burning sun, underfoot the burning sand, while brightly coloured fish devour each other in the rock pools and time has no stop. With a painter's eye Fred Uhlmann evokes the beauty and terror of a primitive landscape. As the tension mounts to its grim conclusion, the end is not easily divined.

L'Ami retrouvé
«Je ne puis me rappeler exactement le jour où je décidai qu'il fallait que Conrad devînt mon ami, mais je ne doutais pas qu'il le deviendrait. Jusqu'à son arrivée, j'avais été sans ami. Il n'y avait pas, dans ma classe, un seul garçon qui répondît à mon romanesque idéal de l'amitié, pas un seul que j'admirais réellement, pour qui j'aurais volontiers donné ma vie et qui eût compris mon exigence d'une confiance, d'une abnégation et d'un loyalisme absolus.»
1978
