Illustrations by Miguel Covarrubias. 409 pages. hardcover. 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 hardcover
