ABOUT THIS BOOK

The Nigger of the Narcissus is a tale of a ship braving high seas and squalls to reach her
destination, and of the men, lashed by emotion and conscience, desperately trying
to cope with an uncertain fate.
Melancholic in mood, contradictory in imagery, The Nigger of the Narcissus is more
than just a seafaring tale, it shows that the storm within can be more tumultuous
than the tempests at sea.

AUTHOR OF THE BOOK
