Descrição: What kind of engagement with Poe the novel provides has been a matter of some debate, with labels ranging from satire to provocation to homage.1 This is partly because of the strange relation the narrator himself has to the source text-a bibliophilic former professor of African-American literature (he's just been denied tenure, in part, he says, because of a principled refusal to sit on the university's "Diversity Committee," and in part because of his turn toward Poe and "general" American literature as the subject of his scholarly interests), Chris Jaynes pursues his "passion" for Poe by convening an unlikely crew for a sea voyage to Antarctica in pursuit of the reality he's convinced lies beneath Poe's fiction.2 Johnson's narrator finds himself compelled by Poe for many reasons, all of which gesture toward the category of the weird.
