This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ... ROLLING DOWN TO COLON THE Hippocampvts has arrived at Colon, Panama, and as I look over the record of her voyage across the Caribbean Sea I own to a feeling of bitter disapointment. In justice to the reader who has patiently followed the little yawl on her journey from New York I desired to include in this story an account of a battle with the elements that would dwarf into insignificance every previous happening of the sea. I wanted to be able to say, "As I recovered consciousness I saw the mainmast go by the board; the mizzen ballooned off into space; the cabin hatch reeled after it, ripped off by the sheer force of the hurricane, and in another minute we were at the mercy of the waves." I thought that it would enhance the dramatic quality of my yarn if it were written on a raft with sharks encircling me and were consigned to the deep in the last of our muscatel bottles. Unfortunately, nothing of this sort occurred. For 550 miles we sailed steamship courses, and for four days of the five that were occupied in running from Kingston, Jamaica, to the Atlantic terminus of the Panama Canal we enjoyed weather conditions of the Grade A Select variety. Nothing could have been more disappointing from the writer's point of view; and nothing more delightful from the navigator's. Throughout the entire voyage of the Hippocampus, which now draws to a close, I have been the troubled possessor of a sort of dual personality. One part of me is the navigator who offers copious libations to the gods of weather and is best pleased when conditions are ideal; the other the writer who leaves port dolorously, hoping that everything unpleasant and exciting will happen at once. Unfortunately for both sides of my personality, we have experienced mediocre weather...

‘Fiercely intelligent, very funny and unlike anything else I’ve ever read’ MARK HADDON 'Original...witty...playful...a wonderfully funny book' JAMES WOOD 'A triumph – a genuinely new story, a genuinely new form' A. S. BYATT Eleven-year-old Ludo is in search of a father. Raised singlehandedly by his mother Sibylla, Ludo’s been reading Greek, Arabic, Japanese and a little Hebrew since the age of four; but reading Homer in the original whilst riding the Circle Line on the London Underground isn’t enough to satisfy the boy’s boundless curiosity. Is he a genius? A real-life child prodigy? He’s grown up watching Seven Samurai on a hypnotising loop – his mother’s strategy to give him not one but seven male role models. And yet Ludo remains obsessed with the one thing his mother refuses to tell him: his real father’s name. Let loose on London, Ludo sets out on a secret quest to find the last samurai – the father he never knew.

"When seventy-year-old Charlotte Perkins submits a sexy essay to the "Become a Jetsetter" contest, she dreams of reuniting her estranged children: Lee, an almost-famous actress; Cord, a handsome Manhattan venture capitalist who can't seem to find a bride; and Regan, a harried mother who took it all wrong when Charlotte bought her a Weight Watchers gift certificate for her birthday. Charlotte yearns for the years when her children were young and she was a single mother who meant everything to them. When she wins the cruise, the family packs all their baggage--literal and figurative--and spends ten days traveling from sun-drenched Athens through glorious Rome to tapas-laden Barcelona on an over-the-top cruise ship, the Splendido Marveloso. As lovers new and old join the adventure, long-buried secrets are revealed, and the Perkins family is forced to confront the defining choices in their lives. Can four lost adults find the peace they've been seeking by reconciling their childhood aches and coming back to each other? In the vein of The Nest and The Vacationers, Ward has created a delicious and intelligent novel about the courage it takes to reveal our true selves, the pleasures and perils of family, and how we navigate the seas of adulthood to cruise--we can only hope--toward joy"--

These widely acclaimed essays from the author of Infinite Jest -- on television, tennis, cruise ships, and more -- established David Foster Wallace as one of the preeminent essayists of his generation. In this exuberantly praised book -- a collection of seven pieces on subjects ranging from television to tennis, from the Illinois State Fair to the films of David Lynch, from postmodern literary theory to the supposed fun of traveling aboard a Caribbean luxury cruiseliner -- David Foster Wallace brings to nonfiction the same curiosity, hilarity, and exhilarating verbal facility that has delighted readers of his fiction, including the bestselling Infinite Jest.
