Includes: THE TRUE STORY THAT INSPIRED MOBY-DICK When Ishmael sets sail on the whaling ship Pequod one cold Christmas

Moby Dick is the story of Captain Ahab's quest to avenge the whale that 'reaped' his leg. The quest is an obsession & the novel is a diabolical study of how a man becomes a fanatic. But it is also a hymn to democracy. Bent as the crew is on Ahab's appalling crusade, it is equally the image of a co-operative community at work: all hands dependent on all hands, each individual responsible for the security of each. Among the crew is Ishmael, the novel's narrator, ordinary sailor, & extraordinary reader. Digressive, allusive, vulgar, transcendent, the story Ishmael tells is above all an education: in the practice of whaling, in the art of writing. ...

Harper Collins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics. ` Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell`s heart I stab at thee; for hate`s sake I spit my last breath at thee...` Few literary masterpieces cast quite as awesome a shadow as Herman Melville`s Moby Dick. Captain Ahab`s quest for the white whale is a timeless epic
- a thrilling tale of vengeance & obsession, & a searing parable about humanity lost in a universe of moral ambiguity. Inspired by true events, Moby Dick is a work of astonishing psychological depth. It is perhaps the greatest sea story ever told & one of the great classics of literature.
