Publisher's Summary

Gil Bailie examines Herman Melville's last novel as a case study of how the Christian gospels are gradually undermining the legitimacy of the scapegoating mechanisms upon which cultures depend. The race between the message of the Gospel and the effects of the Gospel has begun. Will it end in repentance or apocalypse?
