Moby-Dick

Moby-Dick puts the sailor Ishmael aboard the Pequod, a Nantucket whaleship commanded by the one-legged Captain Ahab, whose purpose is not oil but a particular white whale of monstrous fame. What begins as a voyage of craft and camaraderie deepens into a hunt across oceans, with sermons, cetology, and the salt fellowship of the crew set against one man’s consuming will. It is the American epic of the sea: encyclopaedic, stormy, and inexhaustibly strange.
