Moby Dick

What is moby dick trying to do?
I have to write an essay explaining what herman Melville is trying to do by writing Moby DIck. For example women wrote books a long time ago to promote equality of the sexes… but i need to know what herman melville is trying to do with Moby Dick ASAP PLEASE!
He’s showing how using revenge as a purpose in life is both destructive and consuming. Here’s a good quote for you.
Chasing after monsters, you become one too. When you’re staring into nothingness, it’s only looking back at you.
When you pursue something, that’s what you become. It holds true for everything in life.
John Bonham – Moby Dick Drum Solo (1973)
