Hear the story of one man's epic obsession, told by storyteller Dean Verger.

The year was 1851. Moby Dick had just been published. That novel became the victim of unlucky timing. A whaling ship had been recently sunk, with all hands, by a whale. It was not until the 20th century that the novel found its audience portraying the whaling industry, the society of the day, and one man�s obsession. But the obsession is not the only texture in this tale. There is humour, and lots of it. This book has now been adapted into a one-�hour telling of Herman Melville�s �Moby Dick� as told by Dean Verger, with the occasional mandolin tune.
