Description

Saltblood by Francesca De Tores is a gripping tale of one woman's extraordinary adventures. Born as her half-brother is dying, Mary's dual existence as Mark leads to a series of roles that shape her identity and freedom. From serving a French mistress to the navy and the army, Mary yearns for the sea, reinventing herself yet again to become a pirate. This wild adventure weaves an intoxicating tale of gender and survival, passion and loss, journeys and transformation, through the story of Mary Read, one of history's most remarkable figures. With sumptuous and lyrical writing, the story is both fascinating and exquisitely told. A well-crafted, salty, old-fashioned adventure about identity and freedom, Saltblood is a triumph of the imagination.
