Beschreibung
Julian Street's 'Ship-Bored' is a satirical novel that provides a humorous and insightful look at the lives of wealthy passengers on cruise ships in the early 20th century. Written in a witty and engaging style, Street cleverly critiques the extravagance and self-importance of the upper class, while also highlighting the monotony and ennui that can accompany a life of luxury. Set against the backdrop of the societal changes and cultural shifts of the time, 'Ship-Bored' offers a satirical commentary on the excesses of the Gilded Age. With its sharp wit and incisive observations, the book stands out as a unique contribution to the literary landscape of the era. Although not widely known today, Julian Street was a prominent American journalist and author who often wrote about social issues and class dynamics. His keen eye for detail and sharp sense of humor shine through in 'Ship-Bored,' making it a delightful and thought-provoking read for those interested in satirical fiction and historical perspectives on wealth and privilege.
