{"product_id":"book-1o27","title":"Moby Dick; or, The Whale","description":"\u003cp\u003eMoby Dick is Herman Melville's masterpiece of American literature-a novel that defied convention in 1851 and has since been recognized as one of the greatest works ever written.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe story is narrated by Ishmael, a restless young sailor who signs aboard the whaling ship Pequod. Its captain is the legendary Ahab-a man consumed by obsession. Years ago, the great white whale Moby Dick tore off Ahab's leg. Now, Ahab drives his crew across the oceans of the world on a single, vengeful mission: to hunt down and kill the whale that maimed him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat follows is an epic journey through the deep waters of obsession, fate, and the limits of human will. Melville weaves together high-seas adventure with surprisingly deep learning-whale biology, maritime law, shipboard life, and philosophical reflection on good and evil. The novel is as much a dramatic sea story as it is a profound meditation on the relationship between man and nature, creator and creation, sanity and madness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFamous for its opening line-\"Call me Ishmael\"-and its unforgettable cast of characters, Moby Dick has inspired readers and writers for generations. It is a book about many things: empire, obsession, race, sexuality, and the timeless human struggle against the unknown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1851, Moby Dick was largely ignored in its own time. Today, it stands at the very heart of American literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis audiobook is based on the 1851 public domain text.
