It tells the author Thor's personal experience in the 1940s, a real story, the legendary story of crossing the Pacific Ocean by raft from Peru to the Polynesian islands!
Because I was very curious, I wanted to buy it and have a look, but I didn't expect it to be out of print! So I placed an order on Taobao and bought a reprint. I can't believe that a book that sold 50 million copies worldwide and was translated into more than 70 languages is so unpopular in China. There must be a reason.
It was made into a movie in 2012. I just watched it, and to be honest, there is no turbulence, and it is rather dull. "The Fantasy Drift of the Young Pi" is much better than it, maybe the book will be different.
Thor died in 2002, and four other companions died in 1964, 1972, 1986, 1997, and 2009.
After this expedition, Thor's wife Liv divorced him. Liv died in 1969, and Thor continued to engage in archaeology, writing and exploration. It can be seen that the magnificent and the ordinary are incompatible.
