Afloat

Synopsis

Afloat is an adventure novel by French novelist GUY DE MAUPASSANT, TRANSLATED BY LAURA ENSOR. This Diary contains no story and no very thrilling adventure. While cruising about on the coasts of the Mediterranean last Spring, I amused myself by writing down every day what I saw and what I thought.  I saw but the water, the sun, clouds and rocks,—I can tell of nought else,—and my thoughts were mere nothings, such as are suggested by the rocking of the waves, lulling and bearing one along.
