A “brilliant and provocative”<br />

(The New Yorker) celebration of Melville’s<br />

masterpiece—from the bestselling author<br />

of In the Heart of the Sea<br />

Why Read Moby-Dick?<br />

Nathaniel Philbrick<br />

One of the greatest American novels finds its perfect contemporary<br />

champion in Why Read Moby-Dick?, Nathaniel Philbrick’s<br />

enlightening and entertaining tour through Melville’s classic. As<br />

he did in his National Book Award–winning bestseller In the Heart<br />

of the Sea, Philbrick brings a sailor’s eye and an adventurer’s passion<br />

to unfolding the story behind an epic American journey. He<br />

skillfully navigates Melville’s world and illuminates the book’s humor<br />

and unforgettable characters—finding the thread that binds<br />

Ishmael and Ahab to our own time and, indeed, to all times. An<br />

ideal match between author and subject, Why Read Moby-Dick?<br />

will start conversations, inspire arguments, and make a powerful<br />

case that this classic tale waits to be discovered anew.<br />

n An invaluable companion to Moby-Dick and a wonderful gift for both<br />

new and longtime Melville fans<br />

n Nathaniel Philbrick’s latest book, Bunker Hill, will be published by<br />

Viking in May<br />
