{"product_id":"moby-dick-herman-melville-9781535324847","title":"Moby Dick","description":"Herman Melville (August 1, 1819 - September 28, 1891) was an American novelist, short story writer, and poet of the American Renaissance period best known for Typee (1846), a romantic account of his experiences in Polynesian life, and his whaling novel Moby-Dick (1851). His work was almost forgotten during his last thirty years. His writing draws on his experience at sea as a common sailor, exploration of literature and philosophy, and engagement in the contradictions of American society in a period of rapid change. He developed a complex, baroque style: the vocabulary is rich and original, a strong sense of rhythm infuses the elaborate sentences, the imagery is often mystical or ironic, and the abundance of allusion extends to Scripture, myth, philosophy, literature, and the visual arts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Herman Melville\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1535324848\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781535324847\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/17\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 780\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.55d","brand":"Herman Melville","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44716437995775,"sku":"9781535324847","price":26.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8f79fd1c-9514-4b2f-a711-125397289e24.jpg?v=1705682339","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/moby-dick-herman-melville-9781535324847","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
