What is the history of the Island of Pitcairn, its myths and
realities? Born from the 1789 Mutiny, the mutineers, led by
Fletcher Christian stumble across Pitcairn. Handily wrongly located
on maps, this is their opportunity to escape the British Navy and
disappear, today all Pitcairn families are descended from the
mutineers and their Tahitian ‘wives’. But they were not a contented
community, marked by violence and death, which are marked on the
Island in place names. Abuse survivor Glenda, now living in the UK,
paints a vivid picture of life on the Island, eating breadfruit,
swimming, the unique language, the red volcanic dirt. But her
memories are not all full of sunshine.
