Twenty One Days

by Jeff Bannister

About The Book

When two brothers plan a trip to deliver a sailing boat from southern France to Greece, culminating in a relaxing island-hopping holiday with their wives, it looks as though a fun-filled time lies ahead. However, the reality is somewhat different. Take two strong-willed men with opposing characters and confine them to the cramped conditions of a small boat, add bad weather, communication breakdown, faulty equipment, and exhaustion, and you have a recipe for disaster.

The journey takes readers through the wild landscape around the canals of the French Camargue and along the often-stunning Italian coast—an area steeped in mythology and notable historical events.

In a story told from the perspective of a frustrated and increasingly incredulous crew, meet the morose, Mr. Jolly, and other amusing characters.

About The Author

Jeffrey Cleaver was born in 1942 in Coventry, UK, to a working-class family. In 1954, he studied at Woodlands Technical College for a building trades qualification. However, his father took him out of school at fifteen to earn money, and he took a job as a garage laborer. He was offered an apprenticeship and qualified as a motor mechanic. While working, he studied at the Open University for an arts degree and graduated in 1974 with a BA. The same year, he was offered a place at Trinity College, Cambridge, to read history and qualified with an MA in 1978. He became a lecturer in various colleges throughout the UK until he retired in 1997. Jeffrey became a councilor in a local government and was the Arts Champion for the district. He was appointed mayor of Hinckley and Bosworth on two occasions. At this time, he started to write plays and had them staged.
