Sometime at the beginning of the last century, Jeremiah Hudgejaw,
American business magnate and socialite, is returning from England
with his daughter Vivian. A boisterous monomaniac, he has a few
peculiarities that guarantee a humorous crossing aboard the RMS
Noricum: for one, he is a moralist, and nothing rails him more than
the lavender menace-an interesting quirk for someone with an
inability to distinguish between genders. At the same time, he
fights for women's equality and despises the English class system.
Joining him on this highly entertaining voyage are a young
Australian and his father, an Austrian psychiatrist and his
colleagues, a Swiss doctor with wife and mistress, a Scottish
museum curator and his male companion, and finally, shipmates Jack
and Jimmy, who enjoy nothing more than each other's company-and
each other's bodies. Jeremiah Hudgejaw is a highly entertaining
historical satire that takes a tongue-in-cheek look at topics which
are very relevant a century on.
