About This Item

Ginevra, Edizioni Ferni, 1976, 16mo legatura editoriale in finta pelle rossa con fregi e titoli dorati, 296-(8) con tavole f.t.

Synopsis

Typee is American writer Herman Melville's first book, partly based on his actual experiences as a captive on Nuku Hiva (which Melville spelled as Nukuheva) in the South Pacific Marquesas Islands and the title comes from a valley there called Tai Pi Vai. It was Melville's most popular work during his lifetime; for 19th century readers his career seemed to go downhill afterwards, but during the early 20th century it was seen as just the beginning of a career that peaked with Moby-Dick (1851).
