What lies in the depths of the dark heart of a crippled captain? Why does Herman Melville keep giving us hints about what is yet to come? Is it true that he admired all things Greek, especially Homer? What is the meaning behind the names of the ships that hunt whales? Can you befriend a wild harpooner, almost a cannibal? Do the sins of whaling fathers punish their children?
An inviolable, unshakable rule: in the great classics of literature, the joy of reading always comes with questions of why, what, and how. Moby-Dick could be no exception.
Let the following texts be considered the tuneful muttering of a watchman-reader, who spent many hours in the shipyard, observing with care and awe the caulking of Moby-Dick’s hull.
