Mardi
Mardi, and a Voyage Thither was Herman Melville's third book (1849), and his first pure fiction work (while featuring fictional narrators, his previous novels were heavily autobiographical). It details (much like Typee and Omoo) the travelings of an American sailor who abandons his whaling vessel to explore the South Pacific.
