About the book
Two young children and a sailor are cast away on a tropical South Pacific island. They grow up there with no contact with civilisation.
From the text
“He was playing the “Shan van vaught,” and accompanying the tune, punctuating it, with blows of his left heel on the fo’cs’le deck.”

His face was like a moon, seen red through tropical mists; and as he played it wore an expression of strained attention as though the fiddle were telling him tales much more marvellous than the old bald statement about Bantry Bay.
그의 얼굴은 열대 안개를 통해 붉게 보이는 달과 같았고, 그가 바이올린을 연주할 때면 마치 바이올린이 밴트리 만에 대한 낡고 진부한 이야기보다 훨씬 더 놀라운 이야기를 들려주는 것처럼 긴장된 표정을 짓고 있었다.
“Left-handed Pat,” was his fo’cs’le name; not because he was left-handed, but simply because everything he did he did wrong—or nearly so.
그의 별명은 "왼손잡이 팻"이었습니다. 그가 왼손잡이였기 때문이 아니라, 그가 하는 모든 일을 잘못했거나 거의 잘못했기 때문입니다.
Reefing or furling, or handling a slush tub—if a mistake was to be made, he made it.
돛을 접거나 말거나 슬러시 통을 다룰 때 실수를 할 일이 있으면 그는 그 실수를 저질렀다.
He was a Celt, and all the salt seas that had flowed between him and Connaught these forty years and more had not washed the Celtic element from his blood, nor the belief in fairies from his soul.
그는 켈트족이었고, 지난 40여 년 동안 그와 코노트 사이에 흘렀던 모든 소금 바다도 그의 혈통에서 켈트족의 요소를 씻어내지 못했고, 그의 영혼에서 요정에 대한 믿음도 씻어내지 못했습니다.
The Celtic nature is a fast dye, and Mr Button’s nature was such that though he had been shanghaied by Larry Marr in ’Frisco, though he had got drunk in most ports of the world, though he had sailed with Yankee captains and been man-handled by Yankee mates, he still carried his fairies about with him—they, and a very large stock of original innocence.
켈트족의 본성은 염색이 잘 안 되는 염료와 같아서, 버튼 씨의 본성은 비록 그가 샌프란시스코에서 래리 마에게 납치당하고, 세계 대부분의 항구에서 술에 취하고, 양키 선장들과 함께 항해하고 양키 선원들에게 괴롭힘을 당했음에도 불구하고, 여전히 그의 마음속에 요정들을 간직하고 있었고, 또한 아주 풍부한 순수함을 간직하고 있었다.
Nearly over the musician’s head swung a hammock from which hung a leg; other hammocks hanging in the semi-gloom called up suggestions of lemurs and arboreal bats.
연주자의 머리 바로 위에는 해먹이 매달려 있었고, 해먹의 한쪽 다리가 축 늘어져 있었다. 어둑어둑한 곳에 걸려 있는 다른 해먹들은 여우원숭이와 나무에 사는 박쥐를 떠올리게 했다.
The swinging kerosene lamp cast its light forward, past the heel of the bowsprit to the knightheads, lighting here a naked foot hanging over the side of a bunk, here a face from which protruded a pipe, here a breast covered with dark mossy hair, here an arm tattooed.
흔들리는 등유 램프가 앞쪽으로 빛을 비추어 뱃머리 뱃머리를 지나 기사들의 머리까지 비추었고, 침대 옆으로 늘어진 맨발, 파이프가 튀어나온 얼굴, 검은 이끼털로 덮인 가슴, 문신이 있는 팔을 비추었습니다.
It was in the days before double topsail yards had reduced ships’ crews, and the fo’cs’le of the Northumberland had a full company: a crowd of packet rats such as often is to be found on a Cape Horner “Dutchmen” Americans—men who were farm labourers and tending pigs in Ohio three months back, old seasoned sailors like Paddy Button—a mixture of the best and the worst of the earth, such as you find nowhere else in so small a space as in a ship’s fo’cs’le.
이중 돛대가 도입되기 전, 선박 선원 수가 줄어들기 전의 일이었고, 노섬벌랜드호의 선수루에는 선원들로 가득 차 있었다. 케이프 호너에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 짐꾼 무리, 석 달 전까지만 해도 오하이오에서 농장 노동자로 돼지를 돌보던 미국인들, 패디 버튼처럼 노련한 베테랑 선원들까지, 세상의 최고와 최악이 뒤섞인, 배의 선수루처럼 좁은 공간에서는 어디에서도 볼 수 없는 광경이었다.
