Mardi and A Voyage Thither Volume 1 & 2

See all formats and editions

American novelist Herman Melville's cryptic third work about uncontrollable waves of human desire and their ability to set a person adrift in a sea of spiritual, philosophical, and artistic chaos.

An unnamed narrator, U.S. sailor (and thinly-veiled Melville), and his Norwegian side-kick Jarl jump ship from their whaling vessel in the South Pacific in search of freedom but quickly find themselves emotionally press-ganged into the service of man's oldest captain: love.

Their pursuit carries them away from reality and into the metaphysical realm of 'Mardi' (Polynesian for 'World'). (Goodreads)
