Redburn is a semi-autobiographical novel concerning the sufferings of a refined youth among coarse and brutal sailors and the seedier areas of Liverpool. This theme of a youth confronted by realities and evils for which he is unprepared -- or incorrectly prepared by both family and American institutions -- is a prominent one in Melville's works.
