a famous writer, a sculptor, a naive Englishman, a sex-innocent idiot, a most modern young lady and a her mechanically inclined brother (the most modern young lady has herself invited a girl from a much lower stratum of society, and her tough sweetie), and various other assorted Toms, Dicks and Harriets.

They almost all come against their better judgements: they all more or less live to regret it. But the reader does not for a moment. Their conversation is so amazingly brilliant, the things that transpire so unique and startling, the two affaires de coeur that romanticize the trip so lovely, that we are all very happy to be stowaways on the trip.

One is irresistibly reminded of South Wind by this book.
