Description:
Moby-Dick is a sweeping epic that follows the obsessive quest of Captain Ahab as he hunts the elusive and formidable white whale, Moby Dick. Told through the eyes of Ishmael, a wandering sailor, the novel delves deep into the nature of obsession, revenge, and man’s place in the universe. Rich in symbolism and philosophical depth, Moby-Dick is widely considered one of the greatest works of American literature—a timeless tale of adventure, inner turmoil, and the vast, mysterious power of the sea.
