Over a century and a half after its publication, Moby-Dick still stands as an indisputable literary classic.This novel describes the ill-fated voyage of the whaling ship Pequod to find and destroy the eponymous white whale, driven by the obsessive Captain Ahab.A masterpiece of storytelling and symbolic realism, this thrilling adventure and epic saga pits Ahab, a brooding sea captain, against the great white whale that crippled him.Moby-Dick is often considered the epitome of American Romanticism.ÒThere is a wisdom that is woe; but there is a woe that is madness.
