Nominated as one of the best-pasted novels of America by The Great American Reid of PBS
Published in 1851 for the first time, Harman Melville’s work, in the words of Elizabeth Hardwick, is the “greatest novel in American literature”. Captain Ahab’s saga and White Whale’s Monomaniaq’s chase remains a peerless adventure story, but a myth is full of grandeur, poetic glory and symbolic power. The narrator of the novel, filtered through the consciousness of Ishmael, Mobi-Dik draws us into a universe filled with attractive characters and stories, from the great cannibal Quikeg to the natural history of the whale, to reach the existence depth which stimulates arguments and thinking till date.
