      Herman Melville erlangte Bekanntheit mit seinen Romanen Typee und Omoo, enttäuschte jedoch mit späteren Werken. Moby Dick und Pierre wurden kaum beachtet, während seine Lyrik bis heute weitgehend unbekannt ist. Mit Battle-Pieces thematisiert er den Bürgerkrieg und dessen Schrecken, und plädiert für Gleichberechtigung im Wiederaufbau. Jetzt erstmals auf Deutsch.
