About this audiobook
"Moby-Dick; or, The Whale" is a novel by American writer Herman Melville, published in 1851. The story follows Ishmael, a young sailor who joins the whaling ship Pequod, captained by the obsessive and enigmatic Ahab. Captain Ahab is bent on killing Moby Dick, a giant white sperm whale that had previously destroyed Ahab's former ship and severed his leg. The novel is renowned for its intricate narrative structure, elaborate symbolism, and exploration of themes like obsession, the sublime, and the complexities of good and evil.
Herman Melville
Herman Melville (1819-1891) was an American novelist, short story writer, essayist, and poet who received wide acclaim for his earliest novels, such as Typee and Redburn, but fell into relative obscurity by the end of his life. Today, Melville is hailed as one of the definitive masters of world literature for novels including Moby Dick and Billy Budd, as well as for enduringly popular short stories such as Bartleby, the Scrivener and The Bell-Tower.
