Among the crew is Ishmael, the novel's narrator, ordinary sailor,
and extraordinary reader. Digressive, allusive, vulgar,
transcendent, the story Ishmael tells is above all an education: in
the practice of whaling, in the art of writing. Expanding to equal
his ‘mighty theme’ – not only the whale but all things
sublime – Melville breathes in the world's great literature. Moby
Dick is the greatest novel ever written by an American.
