If Moby Dick were an MFA thesis today, I'm willing to bet everyone would insist that "the whaling parts" be cut as not adding to the story. But the writing is so beautiful that I haven't minded it being so long. I'm glad to have finally read it.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08887749173643713230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1396226836483140641.post-61090635976537476602009-08-03T00:09:37.594-07:002009-08-03T00:09:37.594-07:00I still haven't read Moby Dick.

How'd you like it out of curiosity? I hear it teaches you more about whaling that you would ever need to know in a lifetime.Keely H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15623559076577587725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1396226836483140641.post-39420302485047891172009-08-01T17:15:54.047-07:002009-08-01T17:15:54.047-07:00I can't believe they did that to you 3/4 of th...I can't believe they did that to you 3/4 of the way through!

I never completely get the references since I've never read it. I am jealous that you don't have to move! lolJayTeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02923700657540655227noreply@blogger.com
