The permastruct /%category%/%postname%/ will include the categories and subcategories in the URL from top to first assigned child. So, if you want the URL be site.com/source/books/moby-dick/*postname*, you have to assign the post only to “Moby Dick”. Assigning the post only to “Moby Dick” category will still show the post under “source” and “books” category archives by default.
