Sailor Ishmael narrates the obsessive quest of Captain Ahab, who commands the whaling ship Pequod in pursuit of Moby Dick, the white whale that destroyed his leg.

This tale of obsession explores themes of good and evil, fate, and humanity's struggle against nature's overwhelming power. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
