When Ernest Shackleton’s ship Endurance was discovered below the
Antarctic ice in March 2022, 106 years after it sank, the world
thrilled anew with one of the greatest survival stories of all time.
Acclaimed South African writer Darrel Bristow-Bovey has a
deeply personal relationship with the story of Endurance and in this
lyrical journey into past and present, into humanity and the natural
world, above and below the Antarctic ice, he revisits the famous
story wondering why it seems to mean more today than ever before.
Drawing on literature, natural history, personal memoir and
the thrilling epics of polar adventure, this is a celebration of the
human spirit. If this story tells us anything, it’s that in the face of
self-inflicted natural disaster, we can still pull off a miracle or two.
From the bottom of the Weddell sea, Endurance still whispers that
not all is lost, and not forever.
