Sobre este artículo
Boston: Little, Brown and Company, 1962. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. First edition. Foxing on the page and board edges thus very good in a very good dust jacket with short tears, toning, and creasing. Basis for the 1965 Stanley Kramer-directed film featuring a wonderful cast including Vivien Leigh, Simone Signoret, José Ferrer, Lee Marvin, Oskar Werner, Elizabeth Ashley, George Segal, and Michael Dunn, among others.
Sinopsis
Ship of Fools was published in 1962, but takes place in the summer of 1931, on a cruise ship bound for Germany. It's diverse passengers include a noble Spanish woman, a drunken German lawyer, an American divorcee, and a pair of Catholic priests from Mexico, not to mention the disposable masses who are riding in the steerage. The story is all about the characters, these real, dishonest, selfish people that we all know, and their interactions on this voyage.
