Telling the story of Titanic's dead
Have you ever wondered what happened to the bodies of those who were left behind the night the Titanic sank? By 02.20am on Sunday 15th April, many people had been plunged into the freezing waters of the North Atlantic to die in agonising conditions. But where did they all go? In The Death Ship: Recovering the Bodies of Titanic’s Dead Victoria Brown explores the journey of the victims from the end of their life – how they died, how they decomposed - to their burial in the Nova Scotian city of Halifax, and what their legacy means for the future of the wreck.

Victoria Brown studied English Literature & Film Studies, reflecting her love of storytelling and history, especially the Victorian and Edwardian eras. While at Queen’s University Belfast, she was the Editor of The Gown Independent Newspaper, the oldest student newspaper in the UK, and has always written stories and non-fiction. She has written for and presented talks for feminist horror film club Ghouls on Film and written about art history for Berlin-based art printers Kuriosis on a freelance basis. Growing up in Northern Ireland, she has always been fascinated by Titanic, and is a keen supporter of the Death Positive movement.
