Moby Dick is an epic narrative of the journey of the whaling ship Pequod and its captain, Ahab, who relentlessly pursues the great white whale during a voyage around the world. The story is viewed through the eyes of Ishmael, a sailor on the Pequod. Ishmael arrives in New Bedford where he meets Queequeg, a harpooner from the South Pacific, who becomes his inseparable friend during the long voyage for whales.

Captain Ahab, a strange man with a prosthetic leg, has only one purpose in life: to find and kill Moby Dick, the great white whale that bit off his leg years before. Ahab's journey is one of revenge and, ultimately, destruction.

A landmark of American literature, this novel addresses many significant themes such as good, evil, revenge, superstition, obsession, courage, and madness.
