OverviewMoby-Dick, or, The Whale is an 1851 novel written by American author Herman Melville. The story is told by Ishmael, a sailor aboard a whaling ship captained by Ahab who embarks on an obsessive quest for revenge against a giant sperm whale that bit off his leg on a previous voyage. Originally receiving mixed reviews, Moby Dick was a failure when first published and was no longer in print when Melvillie died in 1891. Today, however, it is considered a Great American Novel known the world over. Moby-Dick, or, The Whale is highly recommended for all lovers of literature and deserves a place on every bookshelf.
