Versão definitiva da obra-prima Moby Dick, ou A Baleia, considerado um dos maiores romances norte-americanos. O livro traz o relato de um marinheiro letrado, Ishmael, sobre a última viagem de um navio baleeiro de Nantucket, o Pequod, que parte da costa leste dos Estados Unidos - com sua tripulação multiétnica - rumo ao Pacífico Sul, onde encontra o imenso cachalote branco que, no passado, arrancara a perna do vingativo capitão Ahab. Ao longo de 135 capítulos, Herman Melville (1819-1891) explora com brilhantismo e ironia os mais variados gêneros literários: da narrativa de viagens ao teatro shakespeareano, do sermão à poesia popular, passando pela descrição científica e a meditação filosófica. A nova tradução se vale da longa experiência acadêmica da tradutora Irene Hirsch com a obra de Melville e de um minucioso trabalho de pesquisa de vocabulário náutico por parte do tradutor Alexandre Barbosa de Souza. O volume inclui ainda fortuna crítica com três textos fundamentais para a compreensão da obra: uma resenha de Evert Duyckinck, publicada em 1851; o clássico ensaio de D. H. Lawrence, incluído em Studies in Classic American Literature, de 1923, e um trecho do célebre estudo de F. O. Mathiessen, American Renaissance, de 1941.
