Description
Born into abject poverty in the British Empire, our narrator aspires to a better life as a ship's surgeon--until a tyrannical captain provokes a mutiny, forcing him into a life of piracy and eventually to a tropical commune of maroons called New Madagascar.
Told through a series of confessions to those who visit the narrator during his imprisonment at Marshalsea, The Anatomist's Tale relates one man's brush with the heady freedom of outlaws--and the price of returning to "civilization."
