Born into privilege in war-torn London, Lee C. Shattuck's early life began with both comfort and uncertainty. An idyllic childhood in Ireland fostered a quiet, introspective nature, yet she carried an insatiable desire to explore beyond the familiar. That restlessness led her across continents, chasing adventure while navigating both triumphs and trials—including the loss of a family home in Cyprus during the 1974 Turkish invasion.
In her memoir, Lee shares a profound and unpredictable life journey, marked by a "survival of the fittest" mentality, a reverence for humanity's rich diversity, and a deep appreciation for life's simple wonders—like sharing a beautiful sunset with someone special. Now reflecting from her twilight years, Lee offers readers an inspiring reminder that the world can indeed be our oyster when we remain curious, courageous, and grateful.
A memoir for adventurers, dreamers, and lovers of human stories, Sunny Climes & Shady People is an ode to resilience, cultural curiosity, and the endless possibilities that life offers.
