◎内容简介

小说叙事者以实玛利厌倦陆地的生活，登上裴廓德号捕鲸船当水手。船长亚哈在之前的一次航程中被白鲸咬去半截腿，他此次出航矢志要找到白鲸报仇雪恨。

'Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee...'

Few literary masterpieces cast quite as awesome a shadow as Herman Melville's Moby Dick. Captain Ahab's quest for the white whale is a timeless epic - a thrilling tale of vengeance and obsession, and a searing parable about humanity lost in a universe of moral ambiguity.

Inspired by true events, Moby Dick is a work of astonishing psychological depth. It is perhaps the greatest sea story ever told and one of the great classics of literature.
