Thugh this was written in 1896, it might be described briefly as a comic parody of the Titanic disaster. Two very sensible middle-aged American widows on a Pacific cruise have their ship hit by another --the rest of the passengers and crew go off in lifeboats; the two women and one man set off in another boat and end up marooned on a very comfortable previously though not currently inhabited island, where tey are joined by others. ( ) St. Barts 2013 #6 - A delightful little romp of unexpected pleasure! Not overly deep, but what fun. Also a pleasant surprise in that it was grabbed randomly for my island vacation and i had no idea that part of this tale takes place on a tropical island! Stockton is well-known for his story 'Lady or the Tiger' but i was totally unprepared for the 'laugh out loud' moments in this book. I know there are a few other Stockton books at home in the shelf that I will seek out soon. Highly recommended!! sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
