Ship of Fools

"[This book]...has that sort of existential maturity of outlook and conclusion on life and relationships requisite to so-called serious fiction, it does not lapse too often into sentimentality, avoids seeming foolishly romantic; it is even, one might say, cynical...This, however, is not enough; it has been done before, so what is the point? It could be a good, entertaining movie; but it is not a good book, almost for that reason."Katherine Anne Porter is the author of 'Ship of Fools', published 1994 under ISBN 9780848811297 and ISBN 0848811291.
