About this listen
Widely considered one of the great American novels, Herman Melville's masterpiece went largely unread during his lifetime and was out of print at the time of his death in 1891. Called the greatest book about the sea ever written by D.H. Lawrence, Moby Dick features detailed descriptions of whale hunting and whale oil extraction as well as beautiful, incisive writing on race, class, religion, art, and society.
The story, loosely based on a real whaling shipwreck, features the unforgettable, vengeful Captain Ahab, who obsessively hunts a great white whale who bit his leg off below the knee.

Harrowing
Story: Obviously an American classic, a story of single minded determination so intense it will make you weap blood. However, be warned the narative is broken up with LARGE sections on the history of whaling, the anatomy of whales and really all things great and small pertaining to the leviathans.
Performance: The narator was amazing! really not your average voice, a beautiful timbre and interesting characters that were easy to differentiate between. I wll be seeking other books narated by this person simply because I enjoyed their performance so much.
