In a nonfiction phase. Recommending this book by David Grann, an account of the shipwreck, mutinies, secessions (and seditions) of the surviving crew of #TheWager. Lost track of the abandonments of ever smaller parties on hostile shores, and was astonished by their reemergence in London years later.

Started Broken Country yesterday and I see why it won Book of the Year. It’s hard to put down already. Also highly recommend The Wager, nonfiction book about a British ship that is wrecked, and all that befalls the crew. #currentlyreading #booksky #brokencountry #Thewager

Started this book last night and will finish it this evening. It's a great adventure and I'm really enjoying it. Highly recommend if you enjoy stories of the sea. #thewager #davidgrann @davidgrann.bsky.social

Als er een Gouden Strop (of Golden Dagger) voor historische non-fictie zou zijn, mag ‘ie naar het nieuwe boek van David Grann. De plot is bekend en toch is het nagelbijten. #davidgrann #thewager #voltuitgeverij

The Wager!
Crazy true story that should tell itself, but somehow David Grann made it pretty boring to read. He did a fenomenal research, but the outcome wasn't really well.

I'm voraciously reading a fascinating historical book on Hawai'i, dabbling in a Stephen King novel that hasn't resonated yet, a Werner Herzog memoir a few pages at a time, Grann's TheWager, Zucchino's Wilmington's Lie, and I've got Tana French's latest novel en route. Books: it's what minds crave! 😎
