Beethoven and Schoenberg, Schumann and Hesse, Levi-Strauss and Vico, each has a role in this seagoing carnival of Platonic lust and manic scholarship -- a role as Protean and unpredictable as that of "Zeebee" himself, as he struggles to recreate the world in his own fuzzy image -- a world in which the erudition of Faust, the wisdom of the Rabbis, the music of the spheres, and the angelic charms of a forbidden coed, all succumb to his miscalculated advances. Meanwhile, the real world has done another backflip -- only this time it appears to have landed on its head! Still, Pere Castel's celestial keyboard can play more than one tune . . . What would you do? You have twelve days to find out. Ship sails at noon. Bon Voyage!
