Beryl Bainbridge's Every Man For Himself does not delve into the romance of Jack and Rose, but follows Morgan's voyage across the seas and painstaking insight into love. Through his diary leading up to the Titanic's tragic end, we are given a look at 1912s elite circle with all of its glamour, glory and faults.
Even with its inevitable ending, the novel entices you into the life of its characters and their relationships, a well deserved winner of the Whitbread Prize and Guardian Fiction Prize.
