I read Moby-Dick when I was 13, and it instantly became my favorite book. I loved every aspect of it, and ever since, I‘ve been drawn to any book about the sea.
This one is set in a small sailing village in Denmark, and reading it is the closest I‘ve come to the experience of Moby-Dick. It‘s brilliant—spanning roughly a hundred years and weaving together generations of families and lives. The storytelling is deep, powerful, and unforgettable.
