August 1931. An ocean liner bound for Germany sets out from the Mexican port city of Veracruz. The ship’s first-class passengers include an idealistic young American painter and her lover; a Spanish dance troupe with a sideline in larceny; an elderly German couple and their fat, seasick bulldog; and a boisterous band of Cuban medical students.<br />
<br />
As the <em>Vera </em>journeys across the Atlantic, the incidents and intrigues of several dozen passengers and crew members come into razor-sharp focus. The result is a richly drawn portrait of the human condition in all its complexity and a mesmerizing snapshot of a world drifting toward disaster.<br />
<br />
Written over a span of twenty years and based on the diary Katherine Anne Porter kept during a similar ocean voyage, <em>Ship of Fools </em>was the bestselling novel of 1962 and the inspiration for an Academy Award–winning film starring Vivien Leigh. It is a masterpiece of American literature as captivating today as when it was first published more than a half century ago.<br />
<br />
<em>This ebook features an illustrated biography of Katherine Anne Porter, including rare photos from the University of Maryland Libraries.</em>]]></description>
