Description
The Carnival A Novel by Herman Wouk is a story about reinvention and the search for a new life. After facing middle age, a New York City press agent runs away to a Caribbean island to start anew as a hotel keeper.
As he tries to leave his old life behind, hilarity and disaster ensue in this tale of comedy and tragedy set amidst the tropical paradise. Wouk draws on his own experience living on an island for seven years to create a story that is both brilliant and deeply moving.
This novel has inspired a Jimmy Buffett musical and captures the spirit of those seeking escape from the workaday world. If you're looking for a lighthearted, engaging read with a touch of drama, this might be the book for you.
