Story Euphoria 12: The Open Boat

Stephen Crane is often noted as a forerunner of realism, inspiring the spare style of writers like Ernest Hemingway. In this story, Crane draws on a real life experience to explore the strain that so easily appears when modern man is stripped of the comforts of civilization and sees his own death through nature's eyes.
