Acerca de este título
In 1838, Poe published The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym—a haunting tale of Antarctic exploration that ended abruptly with Pym's boat rushing toward a massive white figure at the South Pole. What was it? What happened to Pym? Poe never answered, leaving one of literature's great enigmas.
Sixty years later, Jules Verne wrote the sequel.
Jeorling, a wealthy American, finds himself aboard the sealing ship Halbrane commanded by Captain Len Guy—whose brother led the expedition that rescued Pym in Poe's original tale. When they discover evidence that Pym's companion Dirk Peters might still be alive somewhere in Antarctica, Guy becomes obsessed with penetrating the extreme south to solve the mysteries Poe left unresolved.
As the Halbrane pushes through ice fields toward the pole, Verne provides what Poe withheld: detailed Antarctic geography, rational explanations for surreal phenomena, and answers to questions Poe deliberately left open. But in explaining Poe's mysteries, does Verne enhance or diminish their power?
Written in 1897 near the end of Verne's career, An Antarctic Mystery is both literary homage and revealing experiment—rationalist attempting to complete surrealist, scientific explanation confronting deliberate ambiguity. Verne's documentary precision serves him well in rendering Antarctic landscapes, but his need for rational closure transforms Poe's uncanny enigmas into natural curiosities.
The result is fascinating hybrid: tribute that can't help betraying its original, sequel that demonstrates both the power and limits of scientific thinking when confronting the genuinely mysterious.
From the author of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea—a journey to complete Poe's greatest mystery, discovering that some questions are more powerful than their answers.
