Melville scholar Hershel Parker has long beleived that the pschological stature of 'Moby Dick' Could best be understood in light of the original, shorter version of Pierre. In Parker's opinion, "...surely the finest psychological novel anyone had yet written in English.". 'Moby Dick' and the reconstituted 'Pierre' are at last revealed as completely interlinked companion studies of the moods of thought, the Typee and Omoo of depth psychology.
Maurice Sendak, as illustrator, has given us a provocative interpretation of Melville's study of moral and mental ambiguities.
