"Moby-Dick; or, The Whale" is a novel by American writer Herman Melville, published in 1851. The story follows Ishmael, a young sailor who joins the whaling ship Pequod, captained by the obsessive and enigmatic Ahab. Captain Ahab is bent on killing Moby Dick, a giant white sperm whale that had previously destroyed Ahab's former ship and severed his leg. The novel is renowned for its intricate narrative structure, elaborate symbolism, and exploration of themes like obsession, the sublime, and the complexities of good and evil.
