John Barth, a moderately successful novelist just turned sixty,
decides to take a sail on Chesapeake Bay with his wife, but a
tropical storm forces them deep into the Maryland tidal marshes.
Lost, Barth takes out his dinghy to search for a way home, but
becomes embarked instead on a quest through the murkier regions of
his own memory-a semi-memoir, staged as an operatic cruise through
desire, vocation, despair, love, marriage, selves, and
counterselves.
