Book Summary
A PBS Great American Read Top 100 Pick " Moby-Dick is a book you come back to, again and again, to find new treasures and delights, a storehouse of language, incident and strange wisdom." β The Guardian In celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States, HarperCollins is proud to present this library of American classics drawn from our storied catalog. Moby Dick is the extraordinary story of Captain Ahabs all-consuming hunt for the leviathan Moby Dick, an epic tale of adventure, free will, and man vs. nature, beginning with one of the most memorable opening lines in literary history: "Call me Ishmael." Thus begins a famous journeyβthe voyage of the whaling ship Pequod and its embattled, monomaniacal Captain Ahab. Ishmael quickly learns that the Pequod βs captain sails for revenge against the elusive Moby Dick, a sperm whale with a snow-white hump and mottled skin that destroyed Ahabβs former vessel and left him crippled. As the Pequod sails deeper through the nights and into the sea, the divisions between man and nature begin to blurβso do the lines between good and evil, as the fates of the shipβs crewmen become increasingly unclear.... Melvilleβs classic tale of obsession and the sea, one of the most important and enduring masterworks of nineteenth-century literature is a riveting drama, exploring rage, hope, destiny, and the deepest questions of moral truth. A BEAUTIFUL PACKAGE WITH FLAPS: Featuring French flaps and a unique vivid cover design, each book in the collection is published as a deluxe trade paperback that is a part of a stunning series look. HARPER COLLINS AMERICAN CLASSICS: This series includes timeless novels, poetry, childrenβs books, and groundbreaking nonfiction that has shaped American thought, literature, and identity across generations. AMERICAβS PUBLISHER: Since its founding in 1817, no American publisher has been so entwined in the history of American letters. Our books enrich, challenge, and defined the American spirit. AMERICA 250: The HarperCollins American Classics arrive in time for Americaβs 250th anniversary celebrations.
