Ship of Fates. In the gridlocked harbor of San Francisco’s Barbary Coast, a ship hung with red paper lanterns draws crowds eager to gamble and drink. Aboard this red-lit ship, the fates of two young women will be altered irrevocably—and tied forever to that of an ancient lighthouse keeper who longs to be free. Set against the backdrop of Gold Rush–era San Francisco’s Chinese immigrant community, Ship of Fates is a coming-of-age fairy tale that stretches across generations. Caitlin Chung, in her slender debut novel, carries the strength and beauty of Isak Dinesen’s Seven Gothic Tales all the way through Ship of Fates. Underpinned by the history of the California Gold Rush, Chung’s story weaves through and beyond that reality, bearing echoes of Grimm’s Fairy Tales, with a poetic command of language that gives this novel a kinship with Steinbeck’s The Pearl.
