Charlotte Paul (1916 – 1989) tops today’s Buffet with Phoenix Island<\/em>, part techno-thriller, part romance, part wilderness survival story, and part utopian novel. \u00a0This book sold more than a million copies when it was released during the 1970s. It’s been out of print for many years, but has been re-issued for the Kindle in a\u00a035th Anniversary Edition.<\/p>\n

\"\"Charlotte led a life marked by the pursuit of numerous careers — news editor, wife, back-to-the-lander, freelance writer, mother, novelist, rural newspaper proprietor, memoirist, parole board official — and usually several of these at once. Living mostly in the U.S. Pacific Northwest, with a multi-year stint in Washington, D.C., she spent her final two decades on Lopez Island, one of Washington State’s enchanting San Juan Islands. On these she modeled chief locales of what became her most popular novel, Phoenix Island.<\/em><\/p>\n
