Project Gutenberg 2016-07-30 Public domain in the USA. 65 Poe, Edgar Allan 1809 1849 Poe, Edgar Allen Pekander, V. The narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym. Finnish Valtameren salaisuus Produced by Anna Siren and Tapio Riikonen "Valtameren salaisuus" by Edgar Allan Poe is a maritime adventure novel written in the early 19th century. The story centers around Arthur Gordon Pym, a young man with a strong desire for adventure on the high seas. His journey involves the exploration of mysterious islands, the threat of dangerous encounters, and a deep dive into the human psyche amidst tumultuous experiences. At the start of the book, we are introduced to Arthur Gordon Pym, who is driven by a longing for adventure intensified by tales from his friend Augustus, who has experienced whaling voyages. The youthful exuberance leads Pym to hatch a plan to stow away on a whaling ship, the "Grampus", despite the opposition of his family. The narrative quickly escalates into Pym's daring escape to the sea, where he faces the extreme conditions of being locked away in the ship's hold. His initial anticipation turns to anxiety as he suffers from hunger, thirst, and the tension of being stuck in a confined space while the ship ventures into unknown waters.
