Three Dark Days le Kenneth MacDonald
For young Lewis merchant seaman, Kenneth MacDonald, the voyage to New Zealand had been ineventful. But on the reutn joutney, three days out of Singapore, something happened which affected him profoundly.
His book tells of these events where he witnessed birth, death and ectreme suffering, It is the story of one man's epiphany told with dignity, compassion and fortitude in an individual, almost biblical style. It is a story with impact and demands to be read.
The mental pain left by this experience was such that it took MacDonald thirty years to render an account of it. Three Dark Days is that account.
A searing, unforgetable tale of an ordinary man confronted by extraordinary circumstances. - John McLaren, author 7th Sense
In a story as spare and dramatic as a saga, always perceptive and very moving, MacDonald tracks the causes and consequences of his impulsive response to the plight of a group of unknown fellow humans. - John Murray, Gaelic writer and broadcaster
