On board the whaling ship <i>Pequod</i> a crew of wise men and fools, renegades and seeming phantoms is hurled through treacherous seas by crazed Captain Ahab, a man hell-bent on hunting down the mythic White Whale. Melville transforms the little world of the whale ship into a crucible where mankind's fears, faith and frailties are pitted against a relentless fate. Teeming with ideas and imagery, and with its extraordinary intensity sustained by mischievous irony and moments of exquisite beauty, <b><i>Moby-Dick</i> </b>is both a great American epic and a profoundly imaginative literary creation.
This <b>Macmillan Collector's Library </b>edition features an afterword by Nigel Cliff.
