Van de uitgever

The young adventurous sailors, Tommo and Toby, abandon ship and flee into the jungle of an island in French Polynesia. But their feelings of victory will be short-lived. Because they are about to run straight into the hands of the Typee, the most feared of the battling cannibal tribes. Inspired by his own adventures, twenty-five-year-old Herman Melville wrote 'Typee' (1846) as a blend of creative memoir, cultural commentary, and good story-telling. He would later tell his friend Nathaniel Hawthorne (author of 'The Scarlet Letter') that 'from my twenty-fifth year I date my life'. Despite being mostly recognized, today, as the author of the classic novel, 'Moby Dick', 'Typee' was Melville's best-selling novel in his life-time.
