About

When obsession takes control, the search for one great enemy can become a battle against nature, fate, and the self.

Embark on one of the greatest voyages in world literature with Herman Melville's Moby-Dick; or, The Whale.

The novel follows Ishmael as he joins the crew of the whaling ship Pequod, commanded by the determined Captain Ahab. Driven by a powerful personal obsession, Ahab pursues a legendary white whale across the vast and unpredictable ocean.

Blending adventure, philosophy, symbolism, and detailed observations of maritime life, Melville explores revenge, fate, leadership, nature, identity, and humanity's struggle against forces beyond its control.

First published in 1851, Moby-Dick has become a landmark of American literature and an enduring exploration of obsession and the human condition.

Set sail on an unforgettable literary adventure with Herman Melville's Moby-Dick; or, The Whale.
