The Nobel Prize-winning author concludes the trilogy he began with "Rites of Passage" (winner of the Booker Prize), and "Close Quarters." An old ship rolls and pitches towards her destination. She still contains - precariously at times - her cosmos of human beings. There are panics, crises, agonizing decisions, a marriage at sea and smoldering smoke. 313 pages.
