📘 Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times drama critic Brooks Atkinson (1894-1984) was not just a writer. Whether climbing or hiking to satisfy his need for nature or visiting other cultures to satisfy a need for adventure, Brooks was using his knack for observation to show a world of color, a world of wonder. Early in his career, he took the British freighter Cingalese Prince on an around the world tour, but not as a tourist but as a writer adventurer. This is his journal of that passage in 1933, one you will find interesting because it captures a world that was not yet lit by the fires of World War II and demonstrates the creative talent that was not yet full bloom. Join Brooks on his journey as he looks outward to the exotic cultures of the tropics and a time frozen for us to examine with the relish he felt about the written word and his time on The Cingalese Prince.
