The classic Melville novel of good and evil. According to Wikipedia: "Herman Melville (August 1, 1819 – September 28, 1891) was an American novelist, short story writer, essayist and poet. His first two books gained much attention, though they were not bestsellers, and his popularity declined precipitously after only a few years. By the time of his death he had been almost completely forgotten, but his longest novel, Moby-Dick — largely considered a failure during his lifetime, and most responsible for Melville's fall from favor with the reading public — was recognized in the 20th century as one of the chief literary masterpieces of both American and world literature."

Herman Melville (New York, 1819-1891) es una de las principales figuras de la historia de la literatura. Cuatro años a bordo de un ballenero, en los mares del Sur, le inspiraron un buen número de novelas de aventuras: Typee (1846) y Omoo (1847) se basan en sus vivencias en las islas Marquesas; Redburn (1849) y La guerra blanca (1850) describen las duras y degradantes condiciones de vida en la marina. Su obra maestra, en la que vertió magistralmente todas sus inquietudes y su talento literario, fue Moby Dick (1851).
