Description
Herman Melville?s thrilling nautical adventure?a timeless allegory and an epic saga of heroic determination and conflict. In part, Moby Dick is the story of an eerily compelling madman pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than an encyclopaedia of whaling lore and legend, Moby Dick is a haunting, mesmerizing and important social commentary, populated with several of the most unforgettable and enduring characters in literature. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour, Moby Dick is a profound and timeless inquiry into character, faith and the nature of perception.
