La lucha de un hombre obstinado contra una ballena “Moby Dick” es considerado por la crítica como una de las novelas más importantes de la literatura universal ya que aunque aparentemente es la simple historia de un marinero obsesionado por cazar una elusiva ballena, es un inmenso poema lírico que tiene como fondo el ansia de triunfo de todo ser humano. La ballena es el símbolo de ese ideal que se lucha por alcanzar y por esa combinación de lo simbólico con el argumento apasionante de la persecución de la ballena, esta obra del escritor estadounidense Herman Melville ha apasionado a los lectores desde su publicación. Es una obra emocionante y apasionante que no tiene paralelo literario.

      In this superb abridgment, the richness of Melville's prose pours out like thick cream from an iron pitcher. Haunting phrases and word-painted, wild scenes are mixed with selections of classical music, mostly somber, selected by a skilled producer. Bill Bailey, a British actor, sounds as American as the whaling men he describes, a low, intense presence with distinct differentiation of the characters. His Captain Ahab is memorable, calling to mind Gregory Peck's movie portrayal. I miss the end-of-side announcements found on most audiobooks but count this as one of the best titles I've reviewed.
