Aboard a whaling ship, stowaway Pym will endure starvation, cannibalism, whirlpools, mad dogs and premature burials on a journey toward the frozen expanse of Antarctica. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePublished the year full emancipation was legalized by the UK's Slavery Abolition Act of 1833, \u003ci\u003eArthur Gordon Pym\u003c\/i\u003e captures the relentless anxiety and violence of pre-Civil War American expansion.
