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.

When the young Ishmael gets on board Captain Ahab's whaling ship, little does he suspect that the mission on which he is about to embark is the fulfilment of his master's obsessive desire for revenge on Moby Dick, a white whale who has already claimed countless human victims and destroyed many fleets. With some sinister crew members in their midst and the hazardous conditions of the sea to contend with, the expedition becomes increasingly dangerous the closer it gets to its quarry. One of the great American novels, if not the greatest, Moby Dick epically combines rip-roaring adventure, a meticulously realistic portrayal of the whaling trade and a profound philosophical disquisition on the nature of good and evil.

On board the whaling ship Pequod a crew of wise men and fools, renegades and seeming phantoms is hurled through treacherous seas by crazed Captain Ahab, a man hell-bent on hunting down the mythic White Whale. Melville transforms the little world of the whale ship into a crucible where mankind's fears, faith and frailties are pitted against a relentless fate. Teeming with ideas and imagery, and with its extraordinary intensity sustained by mischievous irony and moments of exquisite beauty, Moby-Dick is both a great American epic and a profoundly imaginative literary creation. This Macmillan Collector's Library edition features an afterword by Nigel Cliff. Designed to appeal to the booklover, Macmillan Collector's Library is a series of beautifully bound hardback gift editions of much loved classic titles. Bound in real cloth, printed on high quality paper, and featuring ribbon markers and gilt edges, Macmillan Collector's Library are books to love and treasure. Author Information Herman Melville was born in 1819 in New York. He worked at various jobs, including shipping on the whaler Achshnet and a stint in the US Navy before settling in Massachusetts and starting to write. His first two novels, Typee (1846) and Omoo (1847), were fictionalised accounts of his travels and were his most popular works during his lifetime. After marrying in 1847, Melville wrote a series of populist novels for money. With Moby-Dick (1851) he changed course - partly under the influence of Nathaniel Hawthorne - but the novel's complexity lost him readers. After publishing two more novels Melville took a job as a customs inspector in New York City harbour and turned to writing poetry. He died in 1891. An unfinished novel, Billy Budd, Sailor, was published in 1924.

Moby Dick is the story of Captain Ahab’s quest to avenge the whale that ‘reaped’ his leg. The quest is an obsession and the novel is a diabolical study of how a man becomes a fanatic.But it is also a hymn to democracy. Bent as the crew is on Ahab’s appalling crusade, it is equally the image of a co-operative community at work: all hands dependent on all hands, each individual responsible for the security of each.Among the crew is Ishmael, the novel’s narrator, ordinary sailor, and extraordinary reader. Digressive, allusive, vulgar, transcendent, the story Ishmael tells is above all an education: in the practice of whaling, in the art of writing. Expanding to equal his ‘mighty theme’ – not only the whale but all things sublime – Melville breathes in the world’s great literature. Moby Dick is the greatest novel ever written by an American.

Audiokniha: Píše se rok 1814. V přístavním městečku New Bedford se chystá mladý Izmael na moře. Dá se najmout na velrybářskou loď, jejíž kapitán Achab kdysi přišel o nohu v boji s bílou velrybou zvanou Moby Dick. Brzy se ukáže, že cílem nové výpravy není lov, ale pomsta za každou cenu. Herman Melville (1819-1891) Americký prozaik a básník, jeden z největších klasiků americké literatury. Narodil se v bohaté rodině, ale otcův obchodní úpadek a jeho smrt zanechaly jeho rodinu bez prostředků. Chlapec byl nucen doslova bojovat o přežití. Stále však toužil dál cestovat. Stal se členem posádky velrybářské lodi, ovšem pobouřen surovým zacházením uprchl v tropických Marquesách na ostrov Nuku Hiva, kde byl měsíc zajatcem lidojedského kmene v údolí Taipi. Podařilo se mu uprchnout na australské velrybářské lodi a přes Tahiti a Havajské ostrovy se vrátil s americkou válečnou fregatou do Bostonu. Prožitá dobrodružství přivedla Hermana Melvilla k spisovatelské činnosti. Po prvních spisovatelských úspěších se setkal s nepochopením právě u svých vrcholných děl a upadl v zapomenutí. Posledních dvacet let svého života pracoval jako celní dozorce v newyorském přístavu. Miroslav Středa (1945) Český divadelní a filmový herec a dabér. Vyučil se seřizovačem textilních strojů a pracoval v továrně. Jeden z mistrů, zanícený divadelník, ho přivedl do ochotnického souboru a nakonec se přihlásil ke studiu herectví na JAMU, kterou absolvoval v roce 1968. Deset let strávil ve Státním divadle v Brně, potom přešel do Činoherního klubu v Praze, kde zůstal natrvalo. Kromě divadelních rolí je rozsáhlá jeho filmografie, která čítá sice desítky titulů pro film i televizi, ale uplatnil se především ve vedlejších až epizodních rolích. Další výraznou aktivitou je pole dabingu. Jeho hlas zazněl z řady známých filmů i seriálů. Neméně významná je také jeho práce pro rozhlas.

A dazzling speculative novel of 'counterfactual history' from one of America's most highly-regarded science fiction authors, Philip K. Dick's The Man in the High Castle includes an introduction by Eric Brown in Penguin Modern Classics. Philip K. Dick's acclaimed cult novel gives us a horrifying glimpse of an alternative world - one where the Allies have lost the Second World War. In this nightmare dystopia the Nazis have taken over New York, the Japanese control California and the African continent is virtually wiped out. In a neutral buffer zone in America that divides the world's new rival superpowers, lives the author of an underground bestseller. His book offers a new vision of reality - an alternative theory of world history in which the Axis powers were defeated - giving hope to the disenchanted. Does 'reality' lie with him, or is his world just one among many others? Philip Kindred Dick (1928-82) was born in Chicago in 1928. His career as a science fiction writer comprised an early burst of short stories followed by a stream of novels, typically character studies incorporating androids, drugs, and hallucinations. His best works are generally agreed to be The Man in the High Castle and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, the inspiration for the movie Blade Runner. If you enjoyed The Man in the High Castle, you might like Yevgeny Zamyatin's We, also available in Penguin Classics.
