#ARichLife Bounty. This soundtrack for the movie The Bounty (1984) by Vangelis is very eerie. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Finished this (as well as One Dark Window) in the last 24 hrs. Both are excellent! I listened to this one, and the narrator was great. Out of the two, I liked One Dark Window more. Both are great!

A harrowing story but useful to consider in difficult times—these poor people had such a hard time.

1. I sold 10 resin bookmarks to one lady who wanted to give them to her book club.
2. I went fishing, and of course, my husband caught most of the big fish. 23 in pickerel for one.
3. Lily of the valley is blooming
4. My pansies
5 My lilac tree finally had 2 blossoms.

Read4life The bookmarks are gorgeous!! 1y
julieclair Those bookmarks are beautiful! Do you sell on Etsy? I bought some very similar ones there and now I‘m wondering if they came from you! And, I adore Lilies of the Valley. 1y
dabbe Yay for #1! 💙💚💙 1y
LiseWorks @julieclair, no, I only sell them at local markets. I'm sure I'm not the only one that makes them. 1y
DebinHawaii A lovely list of joys! 💛💛💛 Lilacs, Lily of the valley & pansies are 3 of my favorite flowers. 💐 And your bookmarks are gorgeous! Thank you for sharing & spreading the joy! 🤗 1y

Whew. Fascinating, grim (how would it not be), but a solid read. I‘m about halfway through, and have also been enjoying the historical context the author provides — social and political status of all the people on board, how unbearably crowded it was, the influence of the Thirty Years War on the soldiers on board, etc.

rwmg I don't know where you're based, but have you seen the remains of the Batavia in the Shipwreck Museum just outside Perth, Western Australia? 1y
Kinniska I‘m a Yank up in the New England area, and I haven‘t as yet gotten to explore anywhere in Australia, but I hope to do so while visiting friends in NZ some day. I saved the museum that holds collected items from the wreck to my Google maps list. 1y

June 1972. Attacked by killer whales, their forty three foot schooner sank in 60 seconds. They survived on a raft and then just a dinghy for 37 days. This is their story.
