Exiled Royalties

"Exiled Royalties is a literary/biographical study of the course of Melville's career from his experience in Polynesia through his retirement from the New York Custom House and his composition of three late volumes of poetry and Billy Budd, Sailor. Conceived separately but narratively and thematically intertwined, the ten essays in the book are rooted in a belief that "Melville's work," as Charles Olson said, "must be left in his own 'life,'" which for Milder means primarily his spiritual, psychological, and vocational life."--BOOK JACKET

המשפט הראשון: In Memories of a Catholic Girlhood, Mary McCarthy wonders what course her life might have taken if she and her siblings had not been orphaned during the influenza epidemic of 1918 and lodged with unsympathetic relatives at a young age.
