With James Cameron’s Titanic sailing back into cinemas towing an extra dimension author David Kowalski gives his thought on the hold Titanic has in popular culture, with particular reference to the depictions of the disaster in movies and in fiction.
You can visit David’s website here for details on his work and inspirations and there’s a link to find out more about his book at the end of this post.
The earliest recollection I have of the Titanic in fiction was Clive Cussler’s Raise the Titanic.
The title alone was enough to excite me. It’s one of the early Dirk Pitt novels and a lot of fun. I remember seeing the film, and dated as it seems by today’s standards, there is something stirring about seeing the ship rising from the depths.
A Night to Remember is probably my favorite retelling of the story.
