Moby Dick

After losing his leg to Moby Dick, a giant white sperm whale, Ahab - the egomaniacal captain of the whaling ship the Pequod - embarks on a quest for vengeance.

Viewing the whale as an embodiment of evil, Ahab dedicates his ship and crew to slaying Moby Dick. They embark on a relentless pursuit fraught with the myriad challenges of life at sea on a whaling ship. 

Melville’s epic work, referred to as “the greatest book of the sea ever written," is a narration of an epic tale about madness, revenge and consequences.
