La verdadera amistad, la más pura, nace del amor. Nunca muere, nunca pierde lustre. Y sobrevive a la muerte". Este libro me lo recomendaron y tenía muchas dudas en leerlo, primero porque es de época y segundo porque es muy extenso pero mi sorpresa fue que lo disfrute mucho e hice ese viaje con Mary. Mas a verdade é que "Nunca Me Esqueças" é um romance histórico, que cobre um período da vida da inglesa Mary Broad (ou Bryant), uma mulher que ficou famosa pelo facto de, depois de cometer um roubo e ter sido deportada para a Austrália em finais do século XVIII, conseguiu fugir da colónia com os filhos e alguns companheiros, percorrendo cerca de 5.000 km num "pequeno" barco. Remember Me is the title of the true story of Mary Broad, a woman sentenced of deportation by theft to Australia, in a reintegration project founded by England to populate this area. Mary was known as the first person to organise and participate in a well-succeeded escape from the penal colony. In that escape there were her husband, seven men and her two small children besides her. They were able to travel through around 5 000kms on a sailing boat in open sea. The book follows the protagonist since she leaves her parents’ house until the moment of the theft, including the violent boat trip, the horror in Australia, the intricate escape, the death of the children, her husband and people she considered family among other problems.It was such a griping story filled with lots of emotions. I fell in love with Mary and all the characters. I cried, I screamed, had tears of joy, and was on the edge of my bed most of time rooting for her survival and others. El 28 de marzo de 1791, William y Mary Bryant, los niños, en compañía de sus compañeros William Allen, James Martin , Samuel Bird alias John Simms, Samuel Broom alias John Butcher, James Cox alias Rolt, Nathaniel Lillie y William Morton Navegante), roban un bote y escapan.

Based on a true story, Remember Me brings Mary Broad vividly to life in this moving story of a woman triumphing against overwhelming odds. Based on a true story, Mary Broad brings to life the horrors that a somewhat trivial crime could bring about in that period of time. 1786, shy of her twentieth birthday, Mary is sentenced to death by hanging, for the crime of stealing a silk hat. Spared her death sentence, she is sentenced to be shipped to Australia to live out her sentence and be put to work. From sentencing, the journey across the sea and eventually landing on the shore and the colony to work and fight for survival.I totally recommend the book especially if you are into fiction based on true stories.
