Amok is a notable mezzobula (a work of fiction that is longer than a short story but shorter than a novel) by Austria-Hungary author, Stefan Zweig. - AsNotedIn
In March 1912, when a big mail-boat was unloading at Naples, there was an accident about which extremely inaccurate reports appeared in the newspapers. I myself saw nothing of the affair, for (in common with many of the passengers), wishing to escape the noise and discomfort of coaling, I had gone to spend the evening ashore. Stefan Zweig, Amok
