Blending journalism, history, and fiction, this novel features a series of compelling characters and uses the metaphor of a sailing ship to represent the world. It introduces the symbolism of the color white through the narrator's jacket, a theme that is further developed in the later work, Moby-Dick, where it evolves into a profound representation of "blankness."
