The Watch That Ends The Night: Voices From The Titanic by Allan WolfMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Wow! Really enjoyed listening to this one. It is written in verse. (downloaded it via Overdrive from my local public library system). The different points of view in the telling (the iceberg, the ship's rat, Capt. Smith, passengers, etc.) made it quite interesting. The story starts with an undertaker who has gone to the site of the sinking to recover corpses. I'd never really thought about that before, and don't think I've ever read anything that addressed the recovery operation.
I don't know if I would have stuck with this one if I was reading it. I tend to shy away from books written in verse. Now I think I'm going to have to go out and try to find some others written this way and try listening instead of reading.
