ON February the First 1887, the Lady Vain was lost by collision with a derelict when about the latitude 1 degree S. and longitude 107 degree W. On January the Fifth, 1888-that is eleven months and four days after-my uncle, Edward Prendick, a private gentleman, who certainly went aboard the Lady Vain at Callao, and who had been considered drowned, was picked up in latitude 5 degree 3 S. and longitude 101 degree W. in a small open boat of which the name was illegible, but which is supposed to have belonged to the missing schooner Ipecacuanha. He gave such a strange account of himself that he was supposed demented. Subsequently he alleged that his mind was a blank from the moment of his escape from the Lady Vain. His case was discussed among psychologists at the time as a curious instance of the lapse of memory consequent upon physical and mental stress. The following narrative was found among his papers by the undersigned, his nephew and heir, but unaccompanied by any definite request for publication.

评分creepy.
评分(1896) R4
评分充满矛盾的一本书。鲁宾逊式的殖民叙事嵌套了对人性和兽性的讨论，神学的物种等级被植入进了进化论里。兽人社会近于dystopia，人类角色从造物主、统治者转变为兽人中一员。兽性当然是危险、令人不适的，但兽性也蕴于群体之中。叙述者甚至同情兽人夹在人性和兽性之间的处境，看得出对人性和身份的焦虑。 对类人生物的厌恶可以跟格列佛游记对比。
