거대한 흰 고래 모비딕에게 한쪽 다리를 잃은 Pequod호의 선장 Ahab는 복수를 위해 선원들을 재촉하여 모비딕 사냥에 나선다. 그러나 점점 Ahab에게 모비딕은 단순히 자신의 신체에 해를 끼친 동물이라는 의미를 넘어 미지의, 이성을 가진 대상으로 다가오고 Ahab는 모든 위험을 무릎쓰고 모비딕을 사냥하는데 집착하게 된다. 광대한 바다를 배경으로 펼쳐지는 인간과 고래와의 숨막히는 싸움 속에 인생에 대한 풍부한 통찰력이 스며있다. 미국의 현대 상징주의 문학의 걸작으로 꼽힌다.

This classic story of high adventure, manic obsession, and metaphysical speculation was Melville's masterpiece. The tale of Captain Ahab's frantic pursuit of the cunning and notorious white whale Moby Dick, is packed with drama, and draws heavily on the author's own experiences on the high seas. [예스24 제공]
