| adam_text | From the author of the international
bestseller The Last Station, a novel of
the adventurous life and tragic literary
career of Herman Melville
As The Passages ofH.M. opens, we see, through
the eyes of his long-suffering wife, Lizzie, an
aging, angry, and drunken Herman Melville
wreaking domestic havoc in his unhappy New York
home. I
le
is decades past his flourishing career as a
writer of bestselling tales of seagoing adventures like
/V/vr ami Omoo. His epic but ungainly novel Moby-
Duk was meant to make him immortal, but critics
•-cotfed and readers fled. His days have been spent
trudging the docks of New York as a customs inspec¬
tor and contemplating his malign literary fate. But
within him is stirring perhaps one great work yet
—
the
ston·
ot
a handsome sailor in the Napoleonic Wars,
undone by one moment of uncontrollable rage
...
Lizzie s chapters alternate with third-person accounts
ot Melville s crowded life: his shipping off to sea on a
merchant vessel as an impoverished young aristocrat,
his eventful voyage on a whaling ship, his desertion in
the Marquesas into the company of cannibals
—
a great
adventure and polymorphous sexual idyll
—
his instant
tame as a novelist, and his fateful encounter and soul-
deep friendship with Nathaniel Hawthorne.
As he has done so splendidly in his earlier novels about
Leo Tolstoy and Walter Benjamin, Jay Parini pen¬
etrates the mind and soul of a literan,· titan, using the
resources of fiction to humanize a giant while illumi¬
nating the sources of his matchless creativity.
