Unfortunately, the vessel sunk in rough seas off the Nakhon Sri Thammarat coast while being towed towards land by the Thai Navy.

    » It is generally agreed that a snappy title helps the sales of a book, while some titles can be a complete turnoff. It is with this in mind that the English literary magazine Bookseller for the past 30 years has been handing out an annual prize for the oddest book title.
