THE ENCHANTED VOYAGE,
By
This review is from: The Enchanted Voyage (Hardcover)
If you like any of Robert Nathan's books, you will love this book. It is so good that a movie "Wake Up And Dream" was made in 1946 based on this book.

Modern fairy tale,
By Bomojaz (South Central PA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Enchanted Voyage (Hardcover)
A typical Nathan fantasy that involves a Mr. Hector Pecket, who has a boat in his backyard in the Bronx, upon which he sits and imagines he's a sailor. His wife sells the boat behind his back and puts wheels on it to move it. Suddenly the boat begins "sailing" down the street with Peckett on it. Along the way he picks up a lonely woman and a man - they, of course, fall in love.It's a modern fairy tale about fate and doing rather than just dreaming, but Nathan stretches the story out too long; it loses its effectiveness and punch.
