madeupclub 's review for:
Moby-Dick: Or, the Whale
by Herman Melville
Easily one of the most literary books I've ever read. There were words and references I had to look up on almost every page. I loved it.
I'm also ready to take the whaleman's exam, or run a whaleship.
As well as the insane level of details about whales, it's a story of one man's musings on man's place in the universe, and another man's quest to exert his power over nature. I can't imagine this story has ever been translated well into film as it would surely miss the point of the book, and probably actually be about a whale hunt.
