Notă biografică

Richard was born during the Second World War and lived in East London until he joined the Merchant Navy at the age of 16. Over a period of twenty years Richard travelled the high seas, qualifying as a ship's officer and once delivering a tug boat from Rotterdam to Bahrain. Although Richard tested out his 'land legs' in a series of jobs - manufacturing everything from cars, to furniture, to telephone systems - eventually he gave it up to return to the water, sailing away with his wife Margaret on their boat Hephzibah to explore the Atlantic and Mediterranean seas.

Recenzii

A compelling dystopian adventure tackling bravery, friendship and freedom against the harsh backdrop of a world without water. Children's Previews: January, The Bookseller Novels that tap into anxiety about the future of the planet need something extra to stand out and Richard Masson's excellent debut, Boonie, has a harrowing opening with echoes of Cormac McCarthy's The Road. In a world where water is more precious than gold, knowing how to find it is an affliction as much as a gift. -- Geraldine Brennan The Observer
