The story of the novel "Pies and Beer, or The Skeleton in the Cupboard" centers on the fate of the famous English writer Edward Driffield, whose creative path was contradictory and thorny. At the dawn of his career, he was known as an artless realist, despised by the entire city and rejected by the literary community, and at the end of his life he became a recognized classic. Does this prove that a writer is not just a profession, but a special way of thinking and acting?
The story described in the novel "Small Corner" spreads from the shores of China to the ports of Australia.
Dr. Saunders is forced to set sail with two untrustworthy strangers: the insidious Captain Nichols and an Australian with a dark past, Fred. Due to a strong storm, the trio is forced to take refuge on one of the tropical islands, where they meet the good-natured Eric Christensen and his bride, the cold and beautiful Louise. It is in this heavenly place in the middle of the Pacific Ocean that a sea voyage turns into a journey through human souls.
