Sjömannen Ismael mönstrar på valfångstfartyget Pequod som leds av den excentriske kaptenen Ahab. För många år sedan förlorade Ahab sitt ben under ett möte med den vita valen Moby Dick, och har sedan den dagen drömt om hämnd. Driven av galenskap ger han sig ut på jakt efter havsodjuret och får med Ismael och resten av besättningen på äventyret. Ahabs besatthet sätter inte bara hans eget liv på spel utan även alla andras ombord på fartyget. Kaptenen har förklarat krig mot ett av havets mäktigaste odjur och är beredd att offra allt för att få sin revansch.

Billy Budd, a handsome sailor working on a British naval ship in the eighteenth century, is falsely accused of mutiny against the ship’s captain by the master-at-arms, John Claggart. Billy, who unfortunately obtains a speech impediment, is overcome by the accusation and unable to verbally defend himself against Claggart’s unfounded hate for him. Instead, he lashes out at Claggart, much to his own demise. An instant classic once published, Billy Budd is a tragic tale that has been adapted into film, plays and even an opera. This audiobook edition is narrated by the talented Christopher Ragland.

A man sits at his hearth as thunder shakes the mountains. Then—a knock. A stranger steps in, soaked and shivering, armed not with warmth or need, but with polished copper and an urgent offer. He doesn't sell comfort. He sells protection—against the very sky. The Lightning-Rod Man is Herman Melville at his most compact and cunning. This sharply drawn tale uses one room, one storm, and two voices to stage a quiet war between reason and fear, independence and submission, belief and the glittering promise of safety. It's a sales pitch wrapped in a sermon, disguised as a fable.

The American literary tradition has, in a far shorter span of time than others throughout history, achieved a glowing and glittering reputation. From its transatlantic roots it has absorbed the sons and daughters of other cultures, other lands and made them part of her own. Within this melting pot of styles, genres and wordplay one fact stands out: In the American short story, Literary tradition has a strong, vibrant and almost inclusive history, if you know where to look.

In this series we listen to short stories that are NOT by perhaps the most well-known author of this type. But the many other rich talents in the volume may have treated the subject matter a little differently, or were perhaps just overlooked in the stampede to applaud the winner, but these authors are of equal merit.

Bartleby, The Scrivener by Herman Melville is a profound and haunting tale that explores themes of isolation, free will, and the dehumanizing effects of modern work. The story is narrated by a Wall Street lawyer who hires a quiet and enigmatic scrivener named Bartleby. Initially diligent, Bartleby soon begins to refuse his tasks with the simple yet unsettling phrase, “I would prefer not to.” As his passive resistance escalates, his employer struggles to understand the man’s mysterious behavior, leading to a meditation on society’s treatment of those who refuse to conform.

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.(Summary by Stewart Wills)
