Tough Island is a movie for your ears. Author Crash Barry’s evocative, gritty, and funny storytelling, authentic sound effects, and vocal dramatics create a soundscape that transports you to Maine’s most remote inhabited island. Crash narrates and voices the entire cast of memorable characters, including the salty Captain Donald and his insufferable wife, brawny fishermen, and other eccentric islanders.
Tough Island simultaneously chronicles the coming-of-age story of Crash, a 23 year-old wannabe poet living in a rustic fish shack, working as a sternman on a lobster boat. On Tough Island, he deals with love and loss, and is participant and witness to the debauchery and violence of youth. On Matinicus, 20 miles out to sea, population of 50, the ferry visited nine times a year, and airplanes only landed when there was no fog, rain, snow, sleet, or darkness.
Tough Island is a gritty guided tour of a unique society inhabited by resourceful individuals and scoundrels filled with stories of danger and drugs, sex and sorrow and death, all unfolding in a landscape of breathtaking beauty.
