No book more deeply and revealingly explains the spasm of madness through which
the United States has passed in recent years than Moby Dick. For generations,
it has been considered a masterpiece of world literature, but now can it be
seen as an eerily prophetic allegory about 21st-century America. It is now
truly the nation's epic.
