Victor Hugo connection?
Having long ago read this striking and memorable novel, and having just read the plotline of Victor Hugo's Toilers of the Sea, I was struck by the parallels, (a ship deliberately run aground in the Channel Isles area, a protagonist who sets out to salvage all or part of it, and uncovers the nefarious plan) and wonder if Hugo's novel is known to have inspired Innes. I haven't found any published mention of this, but wonder if others might. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 94.194.109.80 (talk) 16:32, 10 April 2025 (UTC)
