Take it from someone like me who reached his late twenties before finally reading Moby-Dick: nothing you have heard or read about Moby-Dick in popular culture or elsewhere can prepare you for the joy of reading this incredible novel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moby-Dick is a story told by Ishmael, a seaman who enrolls himself on a whaling ship named \u2018The Pequod\u2019 along with his newly-made best friend, Queequeg, a cannibal and fierce harpooner. They embark on a long journey around the globe to hunt sperm whales and their precious spermaceti. However, the crew soon discovers that the unique goal of their captain is to destroy Moby-Dick, the mythical great white whale infamous among seamen for its bloodthirst and wickedness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The hunt for the white whale takes The Pequod and its crew on an odyssey through all the oceans of this world from the Island of Nantucket in the United States to the coast of Japan in legendary places such as the Cape of Good Hope and the Crozet Islands, the Sunda Strait and its Indonesian islands (Sumatra, Java, Bali, and Timor), Formosa ( Taiwan), the Bashee Isles (Philippines) and many other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope you enjoy this world tour of Moby-Dick places and that these extracts inspire you to read the&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gutenberg.org\/ebooks\/2701\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">full novel&nbsp;<\/a>if you haven\u2019t already done so!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you read or plan to read\u00a0Moby-Dick? Share your thoughts in the comment section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, allow me to conclude with my favorite quotes from Moby-Dick:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>Consider all this; and then turn to this green, gentle, and most docile earth; consider them both, the sea and the land; and do you not find a strange analogy to something in yourself? For as this appalling ocean surrounds the verdant land, so in the soul of man there lies one insular Tahiti, full of peace and joy, but encompassed by all the horrors of the half known life. God keep thee! Push not off from that isle, thou canst never return!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>(Starbuck to Ahab)&nbsp;<em>Thou hast outraged, not insulted me, sir; but for that I ask thee not to beware of Starbuck; thou wouldst but laugh; but let Ahab beware of Ahab; beware of thyself, old man.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"maps\">Maps<\/h2>\n\n\n\r\n            \r\n            \r\n            \r\n            <a name='map16'><\/a>\r\n            \r\n            \r\n            \r\n            \r\n            <div class=\"wpgmza_map \"  id=\"wpgmza_map_16\" style=\"display:block;
