Moby Dick
ByPublisher Description
First published in 1851, Herman Melville's Moby-Dick is a towering work of American literature that combines seafaring adventure with philosophical depth. At its center is Captain Ahab's relentless pursuit of the white whale, a quest that transforms into a haunting meditation on obsession, fate, and the struggle between humanity and the natural world. Narrated by Ishmael, a sailor aboard the whaling ship Pequod, the novel blends vivid depictions of life at sea with reflections on faith, knowledge, and the limits of human power.
At once an epic narrative and a profound exploration of existence, Moby-Dick endures as one of the most influential and studied novels in the literary canon.
