- Notes: The image, titled "He Whispered It," showing Pierre and Isabel's embrace, appears on the cover of the dust jacket and, on page 277, in a slightly different version. This Kraken edition represents the text that Herman Melville submitted to Harper & Brothers in 1852 but which they were hesitant to publish because of the bad reviews being given to Moby Dick.
