About
"Omoo: Adventures in the South Seas" by Herman Melville is a novel published in 1847. The narrator escapes one Pacific island only to join a troubled Australian whaling ship bound for Tahiti. Alongside the eccentric ship's surgeon Dr. Long Ghost, he witnesses a crew mutiny that leads to imprisonment and island wandering. This sequel to "Typee" blends Melville's actual South Seas experiences with invented episodes and borrowed materials, creating an adventurous tale that hints at the powerful literary voice emerging in his work.
