A Lonely Raft Across the Ocean
General Fiction孤筏重洋
(norway) Thor Heyerdahl
The life masterpiece of "the most famous Norwegian in the world". The best-selling book ever written by a Norwegian author, which lasted for 70 years. One of the four books that the poet Haizi carried with him when he committed suicide. The documentary of the same name won an Oscar and the film adaptation ranked first in the grossing list. Selected into the United Nations' "Memory of the World Register" and sincerely recommended by Maugham, Ah Yi, Zhan Hongzhi and Shi Hang. Content introduction: When I woke up, I couldn't swim and found myself lying on a simple raft, surrounded by 5 companions and 1 parrot. The location was the Pacific Ocean. Today is the 101st day of our drifting at sea. In 101 days, we faced fierce and raging storms alone, fought countless sharks, and encountered food crises and internal disputes... All of this was to prove a theory that I have believed in for a long time. No one believed it, so I went to prove it myself. I made up my mind that if I died, I would die for this belief: dead in the sail, like a knot.
