From the Publisher
Rambunctious, sexy, and full of narrative high jinks, The Last Voyage Of Somebody The Sailor is a bawdy epic that somehow merges medieval Baghdad and twentieth-century Maryland in a virtuoso performance by a National Book Award-winner, and one of America's most outrageously innovative writers.
About the Author
John Barth was born in Cambridge, Maryland in 1930. He stands alongside Thomas Pynchon as one of the innovative giants of post-war fiction. He is the author of The Sot-Weed Factor, The Tidewater Tales, Lost in the Funhouse, The Last Voyage of Somebody the Sailor and the National Book Award winner Chimera. He taught for many years on the writing programme at John Hopkins University
