In the Heart of the Sea Page #6

Synopsis: In the winter of 1820, the New England whaling ship Essex was assaulted by something no one could believe: a whale of mammoth size and will, and an almost human sense of vengeance. The real-life maritime disaster would inspire Herman Melville's Moby-Dick. But that told only half the story. "In the Heart of the Sea" reveals the encounter's harrowing aftermath, as the ship's surviving crew is pushed to their limits and forced to do the unthinkable to stay alive. Braving storms, starvation, panic and despair, the men will call into question their deepest beliefs, from the value of their lives to the morality of their trade, as their captain searches for direction on the open sea and his first mate still seeks to bring the great whale down.

... All this will be to find in your novel?

It will be a work of fiction, mr. Nickerson ...

... Inspired by the truth ...

... But I'll probably not need it all.

So.

- Here you go. Take them. - The money is yours. I insist.

I insist that you keep them.

And I insist that at least one here is sober.

- Will you bring back to ...? - Pittsfield in Massachusetts.

- Held and happiness. - Roof.

Incidentally ...

A man from Pennsylvania drilled reportedly a hole in the ground ...

... And found oil. That can not be true.

I've also heard.

Oil from the ground ...

The kan se bare.

Herman Melville completed the novel in 1850

The year after, 'Moby Dick' released

Nathaniel Hawthorne said: "A masterpiece that is worthy of Homer."

"It will be one of the greatest American novels."
