Moby-Dick in an alternate world
Moby-Dick in an alternate world, but the whalers are the ones being hunted. Body horror, eroticism, mutiny, nature taking revenge, gods of the deep, bigotry, capitalism at its harshest, a main character with a secret (and then another, and another), a steadily mounting sense of dread—this book has it all.
