Description

"It is the horrible texture of a fabric that should be woven of ships' cables and hawsers. A Polar wind blows through it, and birds of prey hover over it."

So Melville wrote of his masterpiece, one of the greatest works of imagination in literary history. In part, Moby-Dick is the story of an eerily compelling madman pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than an encyclopedia of whaling lore and legend, the book can be seen as part of its author's lifelong meditation on America. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour, Moby-Dick is also a profound inquiry into character, faith, and the nature of perception

Книгата е страхотна. Изданието има своите предимства, но и недостатъци.

Pros: Вътрешните люстрации са страхотни. Удоволствие е да пречистваш страниците и да се натъкваш на тях.

Cons: Недостатък за мен, а и за много мой приятели е предната корица. Както и другите книги в този стил, така и при тази виждаме илюстрация на автора... нещо което не показва нищо за самата книга. Обичайно лика на автора е на задната корица. Помислете за преработка на предните си корици с нещо говорещо за историята, която се разказва. Втори лек недостатък е самият обем на изданито... може да се направи по-малко. Много хора не биха го купили, защото заема място в библиотеката като за две други книги.
