«Los mares náufragos» is the historical novel by Isabel Soler, published by Acantilado in paperback (284 pages, in Spanish).
Drawing on the chronicles of Portuguese shipwreck survivors from the 16th and 17th centuries that Gomes de Brito collected in História Trágico-Marítima, Isabel Soler recreates shipwrecks such as that of the nau «Santa Maria da Barca» and brings the reader closer to the experience of disaster: leaks, cargo thrown overboard and lost course, in the context of the Indian Ocean trade routes.
Number 90 in the El Acantilado collection. Includes an epilogue by Miguel Sánchez-Ostiz.
For readers interested in maritime history, travel literature and the Indian Ocean trade routes.
