内容简介
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.

精彩书评
"A masterpiece" Guardian "A great book...a deep great artist"
—— D.H. Lawrence
"A wonderful delight"
—— Nathaniel Philbrick
"Moby Dick is my favourite novel, bar none. It works on so many levels. It taught me that you can have a top layer of narrative-like the seafaring story-and then below that all those wonderful, rich, symbolic things going on"
—— Clive Barker
"To convey an adequate idea of a book of such various merits as that which the author of Typee and Omoo has here placed before the reading public, is impossible in the scope of a review. High philosophy, liberal feeling, abstruse metaphysics popularly phrased, soaring speculation, a style as many-coloured as the theme, yet always good, and often admirable; fertile fancy, ingenious construction, playful learning, and an unusual power of enchaining the interest, and rising to the verge of the sublime, without overpassing that narrow boundary which plunges the ambitious penman into the ridiculous; all these are possessed by Herman Melville, and exemplified in these volumes"
——London Morning Advertiser, October 24 1851

Dickens's great Bildungsroman (based, in part, on his own boyhood) is a work filled with life, both comic and tragic.
