Summary "Blockade-Brecher" by K. E. Selow-Serman is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows the journey of the German steamship "Marie" and its captain, Sörensen, as they attempt to break through the British naval blockade during World War I to deliver essential supplies to German forces in Africa. The story explores themes of courage, camaraderie, and the perils of war at sea. At the start of the book, the atmosphere is tense as the ship prepares for its daring mission. The opening chapter describes the loading of munitions, the careful navigation through dangerous waters, and the interactions between the crew members, highlighting their dedication and anxiety as they face the threat of enemy ships and mines. Captain Sörensen's leadership is emphasized as he strategizes to outsmart the British patrols, facing various challenges as they embark on their perilous journey. The setting not only reveals the dangers of naval warfare but also the relationships among the crew, setting the stage for an adventure fraught with suspense and danger.
