The whaling ship "Pequod" sets out on a long voyage. On board is a motley crew of sailors of different races and nationalities. But the sea hunters have to learn that the main goal of the captain of their ship, Ahab, is not whale oil and spermaceti at all. His heart is on fire with vengeance. He hunts for the legendary and dangerous albino whale Moby Dick, who deprived Ahab of his leg on one of his previous voyages. Herman Melville, who had experience as a whaler, describes the life of whale hunters in detail and with knowledge. With the passion of an inquisitive discoverer, he talks about the ocean and its inhabitants. But behind the living details and characters, a tragedy of a biblical scale grows, where the heroes of the novel face questions of the highest order: about life and death, good and evil. Illustrations by Anton Lomaev have already graced editions of Moby Dick in English, French, Chinese, Lithuanian and Russian. Especially for this book, published by the Loreta publishing house, in addition to the previous illustrations, the artist made forty new drawings that will help the reader to immerse themselves in the exciting world of the great novel.
