Islands; Real and Imagined

A selection of books and single poems about islands; fiction and non-fiction, poetry and prose, for adults and for children. Most are set on islands, others have islands as a main theme or metaphor.
*'Five on Kirrin Island' appears twice - one of them should be 'Five Run Away Together' - I realised my mistake after publishing the list, and can't correct it!*
