Notwithstanding my being, as I have mentioned, quite ready for a voyage, still I had some doubts of this voyage. Of course I knew, without being told, that there were peculiar difficulties and dangers in it, a long way over and above those which attend all voyages. It must not be supposed that I was afraid to face them; but, in my opinion a man has no manly motive or sustainment in his own breast for facing dangers—by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
狄更斯中篇小说《金玛丽号沉船记》是和另一位小说大家威尔基·柯林斯合作写成的,被收录在狄更斯的小说集《圣诞之书》中。作为单行本是比较少见的。
"The Wreck of the Golden Mary" is the work of many hands but was originally started by Dickens. The story portrays an amazing voyage around Cape Horn, then north to the coast of California. The tale takes a stunning turn when the ship strikes an iceberg and passengers and crew languish in lifeboats. Dickens's subtlety of style and picturesque depiction keeps reader rapt till the very end.
