Moby Dick has been called "one of the strangest and most wonderful books in the world," and "the greatest book of the sea ever written." It borrows from Melville's experience at sea, from his knowledge of whaling, and from literary inspirations such as Shakespeare and the Bible. "Call me Ishmael", the opening sentence of the novel, is one of world literature's most famous openings. The realistic descriptions of whale hunting and of extracting whale oil, as well as life aboard ship among a culturally diverse crew, are mixed with exploration of class and social status, good and evil, and the existence of God.
