About the event

Buy Moby Dick on Bookshop.org

Herman Melville's masterpiece of obsession and the untamed sea, one of the greatest works of imagination in literary history--featuring an introduction by Andrew Delbanco and notes by Tom Quirk.


Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read

Moby-Dick still stands as an indisputable literary classic. It is the story of an eerily compelling madman pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than an encyclopedia of whaling lore and legend, Moby-Dick is a haunting, mesmerizing, and important social commentary populated with several of the most unforgettable and enduring characters in literature.

Written with wonderfully redemptive humor, Moby-Dick is a profound and timeless inquiry into character, faith, and the nature of perception.
