Meer over het boek

Set against the backdrop of the Marquesas Islands, this narrative draws from Herman Melville's real-life experiences on Nuku Hiva in 1842, blending adventure with rich cultural observations. The story explores the lives of the indigenous people, particularly in the valley of Taipivai, and reflects on themes of civilization versus savagery. Melville's vivid descriptions and engaging storytelling contributed to its popularity, earning him notoriety as the "man who lived among the cannibals" during his lifetime.
