Book Description Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Cover: Helen Williams (illustrator). First British Paperback. Spine uncreased, but there is a small crease on the bottom right hand corner of cover and some slight wear at the corners, otherwise in an excellent condition. Winner of the American Academy of Arts and Letters Prize for Best First Fiction, this is a fictional account of a real-life disaster, the sinking of the pleasure boat, the Raven in 1941. To muddy the waters still further, of the 36 people on board, only the bodies of the captain (naked and strapped to a keg) and the 14 women are discovered, leading to wild rumours that the men had been captured and enslaved by the Germans. Out of the bare bones of this story, Landesman has fashioned a fascinating fiction, which is part historical mystery, and part an exploration of disappearing values in a changing world. Book.

Book Description Condition: Bueno. Move over Peter Høeg and David Guterson! From a multi-talented new writer comes a remarkably potent, haunting and totally compelling debut novel ? a beguiling literary, sea mystery.On 29 June, 1941, thirty-six members of a small community near Boston go out on a picnic off Bailey Island on the pleasure craft, the Raven. Mysteriously, only the women and one man, the captain, naked and tied to a keg, come back ? dead, found by a lone lobsterman and his nine-year-old son. Then nothing ? no other bodies and no trace of the vessel are ever discovered. Conflicting details about the boat?s disappearance abound. Was there fog, or was the weather clear? Was it sunk by the Germans, or scuttled for insurance money? Was a bad sea at fault, or a bad captain?
