Description:
On April 10, 1912, the musicians board the Titanic. They are a motley crew, coming from all corners of Europe -- England, Ireland, France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Russia -- to play on the maiden voyage of the world's largest passenger ship. During the five short days of the journey, the life stories of the musicians gradually unfold, and we discover not only how each one ended up in this second-rate band "accompanying seasick people in three-quarter time" but also how each embodies a part of the mosaic that is Europe on the edge of the century, "a society as full of itself and yet as fatally flawed and doomed as the Titanic" (Washington Post Book World).
Expand description
A "rich, intricate narrative" (Time Out) that deftly blends fiction with history, Psalm at Journey's End paints a fascinating and vivid portrait of life aboard the Titanic -- from the multimillionaires enjoying first-class Louis XVI-style staterooms to the immigrants crowded together in steerage -- as this supposedly unsinkable ship floats confidently toward disaster.
