Islands seem to occupy a special place within our collective psyche. There is a mystery attached to an island seen from the shore of the mainland or from a vessel. Upon attaining the said island, there is a sense of discovery, possibly followed by a feeling of ownership, especially if the island is small and uninhabited.
