buddhafish 's review for:
Moby Dick
by Herman Melville
Finally. The heaviest book I have ever read for sure. Reading this is tough and definitely, in the middle, becomes a non-fiction book about whales and whaling itself. So much information. The way in which he relates everything back to myth and legends and history is remarkable - almost Sebald like. For that, Melville is a genius. It is an utterly monolithic novel.
And, the ending is one of the greatest I've ever read.
Again, with the word I love. But this is a masterpiece. Glad to have finally read it.
