The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket is Edgar Allan Poe's only completed novel. It begins as a standard sea adventure but descends into Poe's signature dark style, as its protagonist, Arthur Gordon Pym, encounters mutiny and cannibalism. A stowaway on the whaling ship Grampus, Pym finds more adventure than he bargained for once at sea. Poe drew on his own seafaring experiences while writing and The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket went on to be cited as an influence by Herman Melville and Jules Verne.
