Call me Ishmael. So begins Herman Melville's towering masterpiece of obsession and the sea - the story of Captain Ahab, a man maimed by the great white whale Moby Dick, who drives his ship the Pequod and its crew on a relentless hunt for vengeance across every ocean of the world. Part adventure, part epic tragedy, part deep meditation on fate, madness and the human soul, MOBY DICK is one of the greatest novels ever written in the English language.
