It was not until the end of the 1930's that it was surpassed in popularity by Moby Dick, more than thirty years after his death. The story provoked harsh criticism for its condemnation of missionary efforts in the Pacific Islands.

Greene, who appears in the story as the character Toby (Summary by Michael)Copyright Beauty_23 Kunst
