Moby-Dick
A masterpiece—GuardianA great book...a deep great artist—D.H. LawrenceA wonderful delight—Nathaniel PhilbrickMoby 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 BarkerTo 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 1851What a book [Moby-Dick] Melville has written! It gives me an idea of much greater power than his preceding ones. It hardly seemed to me that the review of it, in the Literary World, did justice to its best points—Nathaniel HawthorneOsama bin Laden's name and face have become so numbingly familiar to Americans as in effect to obliterate any history he and his shadowy followers might have had before they became stock symbols of everything loathsome and hateful to the collective imagination. Inevitably, then, collective passions are being funnelled into a drive for war that uncannily resembles Captain Ahab in pursuit of Moby Dick—Edward Said

Moby Dick
In ‘Moby Dick’ van Herman Melville sluit zeevaarder Ismaël zich, ondanks angstaanjagende voorspellingen, aan bij de bemanning van kapitein Achab, die op het punt staat te vertrekken op een obsessieve walvisjacht. Voor Achab, die ooit verminkt is door de witte walvis Moby Dick, is het een wraaktocht. Met immense felheid betreedt hij gevaarlijke wateren, blind voor de waanzin van zijn plan, en weigert hij zich door de krachten van de natuur te laten tegenhouden. Een opwindend verhaal over de walvisvangst, een tragische biecht en een diepgaande allegorie: ‘Moby Dick’ omvat al het menselijke – van het fysieke en bovennatuurlijke tot het spirituele en emotionele. Deze ‘great American novel’ zit boordevol vreemde wijsheden en wild uiteenlopende energie.
