Tom and fellow sailor Toby escape from their duties onboard a whaling ship and fall in with savages on Nukuheva of the Marquesas Islands. The islanders welcome them to their tropical paradise, but won't let them leave-and Tom suspects they may be cannibals.Typee was Herman Melville's first and most immediately successful novel, published in 1846. Inspired by Melville's own desertion from a whaling ship and time spent in the Marquesas Islands, the novel blends adventure narrative with anthropological observation and romantic idyll.Perfect for readers who love sea adventures and tales of life in exotic Pacific islands, Typee delivers Melville's storytelling gift in a more accessible form than Moby Dick.
