Summary

1933. An ocean liner, belonging to a second rate German company, is making a twenty-
six day voyage from Veracruz, Mexico to Bremerhaven, Germany. Along the way, they
will stop in Cuba to pick up a large group of Spanish farm laborers who are being
shipped home and who will be housed like cattle in steerage, and La Condesa, a
Spanish countess, and stop in Tenerife where the farm workers will disembark and
where La Condesa will be sent to a German run prison for her "traitorous" activities
in Cuba. This voyage will be the last of three for the ship's doctor, Willi
Schumann, who has a serious heart ailment and who thought he could find some meaning
to his life through this job. Willi and La Condesa fall in love, with the ship's
Captain Thiele, who is Willi's closest friend on board, believing drug addicted La
Condesa is only using him to get her fixes. Willi and La Condesa have to figure out
if there is a future for them after the twenty-six days, Willi's life which also
includes a wife and sons back in Bremerhaven. Among the other motley crew of
passengers are: Mary Treadwell, a middle aged American divorc e, who is trying to
recapture her youth; Tenny, a middle aged American ex-baseball player who laments
never having made it big in the game; David and Jenny, a young American couple who
state they are in love but who have to overcome their fundamental differences in
social standings and life outlooks; Rieber, a middle aged German Nazi sympathizer
who is traveling with a young fr ulein companion, and who lords his beliefs over the
other German passengers, who in turn are either so self-absorbed with their own
lives and/or just don't care to notice what is happening in Germany with the Nazis;
and Lowenthal and Glocken, a German Jew and a German dwarf respectively, who are
"paired" as the outsiders among those in first class. Their encounters, plus those
with a rambunctious pair of children, two German teenagers who are coming into their
sexual being but are having problems overcoming issues they face, and a troupe of
gypsy entertainers, the women of which are pimped out by their leader, lead to an
interesting voyage.
