Questo libro, pubblicato nel 1851 senza alcun successo, e riscoperto nel 1921, quando evidentemente il pubblico, maturato, poteva apprezzarlo, è considerato un capolavoro della letteratura americana, e si è talmente tanto radicato nell'inconscio collettivo che il nome di Moby Dick ha assunto ovunque il significato dell Assoluto irraggiungibile e della inevitabile sconfitta dell'orgoglio umano di fronte alle forze metafisiche.

Ahab is the captain of a whaling ship named the Pequod. His great obsession with the giant whale, Moby Dick, makes him embark on a dangerous voyage. Some years before, the captain lost his leg because of the whale and now Ahab’s main desire is to take his revenge on the whale by killing it. He is so obsessed, that Ahab is ready to sacrifice everything he has, including the Pequod and all the members of his crew, and even his own life.

Para sair da monotonia, o professor rural Ismael decide descobrir os mistérios das baleias. Quando ele encontra o arpoador Queequeg, eles partem juntos para a ilha de Nantucket em busca de trabalho no mercado de caça às baleias. Lá, eles embarcam com tripulantes de diversas nacionalidades no baleeiro Pequod para uma viagem de três anos aos mares do sul. Mal sabe ele que o sombrio capitão Ahab está obcecado por encontrar a fera responsável por seus ferimentos e que nenhum arpoador jamais conseguiu abater: a temível Moby Dick.

When Herman Melville finished Moby Dick, he wrote a letter to his friend Nathaniel Hawthorne and said: "I have written a wicked book and feel spotless as the lamb." Unfortunately, very few people actually finish reading this 'wicked' book. One early critic said: "Melville's book can sink a ship with greater force than any whale that I know of." Moby Dick, as originally written, is just plain heavy, difficult to read from cover to cover.

Few things, even in literature, can really be said to be unique — but Moby Dick is truly unlike anything written before or since. The novel is nominally about the obsessive hunt by the crazed Captain Ahab of the book’s eponymous white whale. But interspersed in that story are digressions, paradoxes, philosophical riffs on whaling and life, and a display of techniques so advanced for its time that some have referred to the 1851 Moby Dick as the first “modern” novel.View our entire collection of podcasts at www.solgood.orgThis is a Librivox Recording.
