Sobre IBD

his volume collects four of Melville’s major prose works, each exploring a different facet of human struggle through maritime life. From the epic pursuit in Moby-Dick to the institutional realities of White-Jacket, the exile of Israel Potter, and the youthful awakening in Redburn, these novels interrogate honor, alienation, and the American ideal. Together, they form a penetrating portrait of the individual adrift in a vast and shifting world.
