Overview
Typee (1846; in full: Typee: A Peep at Polynesian Life) is American writer Herman Melville''s first book, partly based on his actual experiences as a beachcomber on Nuku Hiva (which Melville spelled as Nukuheva) in the South Pacific Marquesas Islands and the title comes from a valley there called Tai Pi Vai. It was Melville''s most popular work during his lifetime; for 19th century readers his career seemed to go downhill afterwards, but during the early 20th century it was seen as just the beginning of a career that peaked with Moby-Dick (1851).
