Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
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. More than just the tale of a hair-raising voyage, Melville's riveting story passionately probes man's soul.  A literary classic very first published in 1851, Moby-Dick represents the ultimate human struggle.




Customer Reviews
User popularity level: out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Not an easy read but worth the trouble...
Yes, it's not an easy book to read - it's long and some of the chapters are tedious. There are whole passages that I read and reread and do not understand what the author was talking about! However, I urge anyone who loves history and literature to persevere. The book is a wonderful adventure story with so much detail that you feel like you're right there aboard the Pequod on this doomed voyage. The characters are memorable and the environmental theme resonates today. Don't be put off by its length - take the plunge!


Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - I love this book!!
this book has been one of my most loved books since I was a small child. it's just great and though most people wouldn't think to read the book to a child. My father read it to me and so i have read it to mine and we have all enjoyed this amazing book at bedtime.


Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - A Classic; Tough to read, though!
True, it is an American classic. It gets five stars for that alone. However, it was written in the 2nd quarter of the 19th century, so it is tough to read now in the 21st century.
