About the book

This collection brings together the shorter fiction of Herman Melville, author of Moby-Dick. Stories such as Bartleby, the Scrivener and Benito Cereno explore alienation, authority, morality and the darker uncertainties beneath apparently ordinary situations. Melville's shorter works demonstrate the same philosophical depth and stylistic inventiveness as his novels.
