Moby-dick

Part of Penguin's beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series; designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith; these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful; tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. In Herman Melville's Moby-Dick; Captain Ahab is an eerily compelling madman who focuses his distilled hatred and suffering (and that of generations before him) into the pursuit of a creature as vast; dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. More than just a novel of adventure; this is a haunting social commentary populated with some of the most enduring characters in literature. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour; Moby Dick is a profound and timeless inquiry into character; faith and the nature of perception.
