Herman Melville 
Moby Dick 

The best thing that you can expect from a book is that it actually transports to the scene by imaginative and realistic narration of the story. Moby Dick, is one such book that talks about the how blinded one can get when it comes to revenge and hatred and they choose to overlook what is at stake. Moby Dick is actually a great white whale against whom Ahab bears a grudge for loosing his leg. Driven by his sheer vengeance, he put the entire crew along with the ship at stake. A compelling story of the tussle between man and nature in which the latter of course wins. Man remains a mute spectator who is still reeling in its mysteries.
