"Tarzan and the Ant Men" by Edgar Rice Burroughs is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Esteban Miranda, a character who has been imprisoned by cannibals and believes himself to be Tarzan of the Apes, as well as the actual Tarzan, who is on a separate adventure. The narrative blends elements of adventure, fantasy, and exploration, as it delves into both the fantastical world of pygmies and the struggles of its characters against their environments and each other. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to Esteban Miranda, a Spaniard who is chained in a cannibal village and has adopted the persona of Tarzan. Attempting to survive, he manipulates the villagers into believing he is a powerful river devil. He encounters Uhha, the daughter of the witch doctor, and through their interaction, he persuades her to help him escape. Meanwhile, the narrative also hints at Tarzan's own journey of discovery as he becomes aware of a hidden land populated by curious creatures. The opening sets the stage for a tale of adventure tinged with themes of identity, survival, and the clash between civilization and the primal instincts of the jungle.
