Beschreibung

En route to make their fortunes, the passengers of the Golden Mary suffer a terrifying ordeal when their vessel collides with an iceberg. Now the helpless victims of shipwreck, they turn to the restorative powers of storytelling in a desperate attempt to raise morale. As each takes their turn, from the captain (whose tale is masterfully recounted by Dickens himself ) to the first mate (as told by Wilkie Collins), the Dickensian figures of miser and murderer, orphan and ghost, are brought on board with most remarkable effect. Ingeniously conceived and brilliantly rendered, The Wreck of the Golden Mary gathers together the best of Victorian storytelling, set against a backdrop of the California gold rush.
