The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket

The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket

by Edgar Allen Poe  •  Jeffrey Meyers (Introduction)

  • LITERATURE
  • 2002
  • PAPER
  • 304 PAGES

A handsome Modern Library edition of The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket, a richly imagined tale -- and Poe's only novel. Inspired by a true life shipwreck, this story of an adventurous (and unfortunate) stowaway on a whaling ship famously includes poor Pym's ordeal in the Antarctic. A reprint of the original 1838 American edition with a new introduction by Poe biographer Jeffrey Meyers  (ANT173, $9.95)
