Moby Dick is a hate story. Fundamentally hatred
and anger. A cold hatred that drives all the threads
of the argument.
Captain Achab by his very presence is able to drag
with his hatred a whole crew towards a terrible
end. Hate will be present in each and every page
of the story. A bitter hatred with gall. Moby Dick is
not a story about the whale; it is the story of
Achab, the old and resentful Captain Achab, and
the pursuit of a goal in life.
Achab is a man obsessed with an idea: to kill Moby
Dick, the white whale. In his previous encounter
with the whale, Achab lost a leg from a Moby Dick
bite, and this has upset him, haunting him just an
idea in his mind. Moby Dick will embody all his
evils.
An empty man, who has nothing left, because he
has dedicated a life to an obsession. Achab is 58
years old, 40 of
Whom have been hunting whales, and along which he has only been 3 years on his land where he has a
wife and daughter. None of this matters to you, not the family, not the money, not the work... nothing.
Just do away with the white demon.
Shortly after beginning the hunting trip, as news of Moby Dick is heard by other boats, he is diverting the
Pequod route, even stopping whaling on the way to quickly approach the object of his desire, being
reproved by his officers, and with the threat of the ever present mutiny. But the character of the captain
and his long shadow will prevent any kind of rebellion. Nothing will stand between him and his destiny.
Finally, and when the decisive encounter occurs, as it could not be otherwise, the fate of Achab and Moby
Dick will be united to the end, dragging in his journey to hell with the Pequod with all his crew. Only Ismael
remains as a witness of the cruel denouement, to bear witness to the terrible end of a man and his
obsession.
