A Survivor's Tale
L'île de la demoiselle
1542, the year of Jacques Cartier's second mission to Canada. Pregnant by a man other than her future husband, the expedition's commander, the young Marguerite de la Rocque is abandoned on a deserted island off the coast of Newfoundland with the man who raped her and his maid. She will remain there for two years, surviving hunger, cold, despair, and madness.
