From the Belly, by Emmett Nahil; Tenebrous Press, 2024.
Moby-Dick in an alternate world, but the whalers are the ones being hunted. Body horror, eroticism, mutiny, nature taking revenge, gods of the deep, capitalism at its most brutal, a main character with a secret (and then another, and another), body count and sense of dread both logarithmically increasing—this book has it all. Interior illustrations by Megan Llewellyn. (I love the pictures, I just wish there were more of them.)
