"Call me Ishmael." Thus starts the greatest American novel. Melville said himself that he wanted to write "a mighty book about a mighty theme" and so he did. It is a story of one man's obsessive revenge-journey against the white whale, Moby-Dick, who injured him in an earlier meeting. Woven into the story of the last journey of The Pequod is a mesh of philosophy, rumination, religion, history, and a mass of information about whaling through the ages.Download the accompanying reference guide.Public Domain (P)2005 NAXOS AudioBooks Ltd.

Featured Article: The top 100 classics of all time


Before we whipped out our old high school syllabi and dug deep into our libraries to start selecting contenders for this list, we first had to answer the question, "How do we define a classic?" The answer isn’t as straightforward as you might guess, though there’s a lot to be said for the old adage, "You know it when you see it" (or, in this case, hear it). Of course, most critically, each of our picks had to be fabulous in audio. So dust off your aspirational listening list—we have some amazing additions you don’t want to miss.

In case you didn't know, William Hootkins is Red Six "Porkins" from the scene in Star Wars when the X-Wing fighters attack the Death Star. He gets blown up because he doesn't pull up. He is also in Raiders of the Lost Ark and Batman and most importantly he one of the best narrators of all time. I have not listened to any of his other narrations, but I call him one of the best based on this one reading of Moby Dick. I love it. I don't think there are many equal performances - maybe Jeremy Irons for Lolita, or Stephen Fry for Sherlock Holmes. I also like William Hurt in The Sun Also Rises and John Rowe in Remembrance of Things Past. Rosamund Pike is good in Pride and Predjudice. Moby Dick the book is mysterious and gets under your skin. Its kind of like some other classics: at first you think, what's all the big fuss, but then you go hmmm, why can't I stop thinking about this, and then it becomes your favorite. I highly recommend this book.

This recording makes Moby Dick come alive. Hootkins truly understands Melville. I've never been this impressed by a narrator.

William Hootkins is brilliant!

The narration was amazing. Props to them for reading so well.

For the book, I honestly thought it was just okay. The use of alliteration is quite good, my favorite part for sure, but overall the story just didn't suck me in.

I recommend googling "How to read Moby Dick" before starting. I looked it up about half way through and maybe if I had done it before starting I would have liked it more.

Excellent narrator Okay book

Loved it beginning to end! Absolutely awesome story! But above all was the life given to each and every character, and all done by one voice actor at that, William Hootkins you deserve the highest award possible for this performance! I will be looking into other books read by him.

Great job!
