About Moby-Dick

Captain Ahab hunts the great white whale that took his leg. A 600-page meditation on obsession that intimidates print readers but listens surprisingly well at 1.3× speed.

Why it works as an audiobook

The famous "encyclopedia of whaling" chapters that bog down silent readers actually work better as audio — they play like a podcast about whaling between the dramatic scenes.
