The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket, and Related Tales (Oxford World's Classics)

By Edgar Allan Poe

Book Overview

And now I found these fancies creating their own realities, and all imagined horrors crowding upon me in fact. The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym is an archetypal American story of escape from home and family which traces a young man's rite of passage through a series of terrible brushes with death during a fateful sea voyage. But it also goes much deeper, as Pym encounters various interpretative dilemmas, at last leaving the reader with a broken-off ending that defies solution.
