Moby-Dick or, The Whale by Herman MelvilleMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Librivox audio book review: Vivid description of the whaling industry and the hardships faced by seaman. The Ahab obsession and his regrets of 40 years of whaling while leaving a living widowed wife to be out at sea for four to five years at a time is symbolic of the pursuit of wealth and fame at the cost of the detriment of the soul.
