An Extraordinary Geography
“So far as I can learn there never was any woman in his life. His furrow had therefore to be a lonely
one. Perhaps if some dear girl—who can tell?
~J. M. Barrie, “Captain Hook at Eton” (1927)

An Extraordinary Geography is the true story of Capt. James Hook as told by the woman who stowed away aboard his ship (because, as we all know, Peter Pan is an unreliable narrator). For readers of Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett, The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi by Shannon Chakraborty--and fans of J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan and Wendy who suspect Captain Hook might not have gotten a fair chance.
