The novel "Ship of the Dead" (1926) marked the beginning of the world fame of B. Traven, an anarchist writer, a participant in the revolutionary unrest in Germany, who left Europe in 1924 and lived in Mexico until the end of his days. Traven's books express with rare force a protest against a controlled world, against attempts to make the existence of the human individual completely "transparent". The hero of his first major novel, a passportless sailor who finds himself on a dubious "box" - a modern ghost ship that becomes a grandiose symbol of the entire Western civilization - is confronted with the bureaucratic mechanisms of total control.
