Illustrations by Miguel Covarrubias. 409 pages. hardcover. keywords: Literature America. FROM THE PUBLISHER-At one time the most popular of Melville's works, TYPEE was known as a travelogue that idealized and romanticized a mysterious South Sea island for readers in the ruthless, industrial, ‘civilized' world of the nineteenth century. But Melville's story of Tommo, the Yankee sailor who enters the flawed Pacific paradise of Nuku Hiva, is also a fast-moving adventure tale, an autobiographical account of the author's own Polynesian stay, an examination of the nature of good and evil, and a frank exploration of sensuality and exotic ritual. ‘Melville at his best invariably wrote from a sort of dream self, so that events which he relates as actual fact have indeed a far deeper reference to his own soul, his own inner life. '-D. H. Lawrence. inventory #34317.
