MELVILLE HIS WORLD AND WORK
Published by Picador. 1st. 2005
Fine condition in a fine dustwrapper. Delbanco traces Melville's growth from the bawdy storytelling of Typee through the spiritual preoccupations building up to Moby-Dick and the profound disillusionment of later works, even as he charts a life that left little evidence in its wake and was, long before Melville's death, consigned to obscurity. Red boards, gilt title to spine. B/w illustrations. xxiii and 415 pages including index.
