With her multiple-award-winning, bestselling, and critically acclaimed novel The Outlander, Gil Adamson established herself as one of North America's preeminent fiction writers. But ten years before The Outlander Adamson published another book of fiction with a small press, and writers, readers, and critics immediately sat up and took note. With this new updated edition, Adamson s fascinating portrait of a young woman s coming of age is ready for readers once again. Help Me, Jacques Cousteau presents the life and times of Hazel, who is born into an extraordinary family alongside her brother Andrew. Hazel s experiences, at once odd and completely believable, involve a diverse cast of family members who share only one thing: a penchant for eccentric behavior. In portraying a strange, compelling, dysfunctional family, Adamson demonstrates her powerful prose style, uniquely combining a scientist s loving attention to detail, a comic s unerring delivery, and a poet s sublime ear."

Review:

Praise for The Outlander:

'A remarkable first novel, full of verve, beautifully written, and with all the panache of a great adventure'

(Michael Ondaatje)

'From the outset, this atmospheric debut has a palpable air of menace ... With the breathless pace of an old-fashioned adventure story, and a supporting cast of mavericks, eccentrics and outcasts, this rich novel is packed full of drama' (Daily Mail)

'A superb adventure story' (Kate Saunders, The Times)

'Striking, thoughtful, full of unexpected twists, The Outlander is that rare delight: a novel that is beautifully written yet as gripping as any airport page-turner ... there are echoes of Cormac McCarthy. Hugely enjoyable ... A rattling good yarn' (Guardian)
Book Description:
A funny, haunting portrait of an offbeat family in this episodic novel by the mutiple-awardwinning author of The Outlander
