About This Item
You can almost smell the seasalt... a superb mix of lyricism and economy.' - Sunday Herald, UK This is the story of one of the most shocking events of the seventeenth century: the wreck of a Dutch ship, the Batavia, off the west coast of Australia, and the extraordinary events that befell its stranded survivors. It is also the story of Judith Bastiaansz, sailing with her family to a new life, who is caught up in something well beyond her experience: first infatuation and then, perhaps, something far more dangerous. Combining a gripping narrative with vivid historical detail, this is a beautiful, terrifying, deeply moving novel of love and anarchy. 'A cross between Robinson Crusoe and Lord of the Flies - a powerful read.' Tracy Chevalier, The Guardian
