Description

Experience one of the greatest works of classic literature with this edition of Moby Dick from Wordsworth Editions. This version includes an Introduction and Notes by David Herd, a Lecturer in English and American Literature at the University of Kent at Canterbury and co-editor of Poetry Review. Follow the intense journey of Captain Ahab as he pursues a quest to avenge the whale that took his leg. This novel serves as a study of how obsession can turn a man into a fanatic. Beyond the personal crusade, the story explores the dynamics of a cooperative community. The crew represents a group where all hands depend on one another, with every individual responsible for the collective security of the ship. This classic tale offers a deep look at both individual madness and the strength of a working community.
