In As Long as it Takes, Joshua experiences a magical childhood with his father through their time spent in nature at a cabin on a lush coastal island. Everything changes for Joshua when his father dies, leaving him feeling disconnected from his family and from his own emotions. Years pass, and as Joshua becomes a father himself, this experience breaks his emotional block, allowing him to finally grieve the loss of his father. To complete the circle, Joshua returns to the island to share his childhood experiences there with his new son.

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue.
