About Herman Melville

Herman Melville (1819–1891) was an American novelist, short-story writer, essayist, and poet who is often classified as part of dark romanticism. He is best known for his novel Moby Dick and novella Billy Budd, the latter which was published posthumously. His first three books gained much attention, the first becoming a bestseller, but after a fast-blooming literary success in the late 1840s, his popularity declined precipitously in the mid-1850s and never recovered during his lifetime. When he died, he was almost completely forgotten. It was not until the "Melville Revival" in the early twentieth century that his work won recognition, most notably Moby Dick, which was hailed as one of the chief literary masterpieces of both American and world literature.

Goodreads review by Giovanni on January 21, 2011

I was a little bit perplexed and shocked to have seen that this graphic novel had gotten 126,000 ratings on Goodreads. I mean, I enjoyed it, but that would make this one heck of a popular graphic novel. What I came to discover though was that this was not just a rating for the graphic novel but also......more

Goodreads review by Kate on September 03, 2019

Klasika v novém kabátu. Snad všichni aspoň z doslechu znají Moby Dicka, bílou velrybu. Komiksové zpracování je ideální pro ty, co chtějí mít trochu přehledu, ale třeba nemají čas na přečtení celé knihy. Izmael se shodou náhod setká s divochem Kvíkvegem. Tomu padne do oka a stanou se z nich přátelé,......more
