Impressive and refreshing take on Moby Dick helping us all to feel there may be more to understand and admire about literary conversations years after any work - I certainly do not even begin to put myself in this category , yet when I share a poem, I am amazed at the many angles that never crossed my mind but when articulated resonate within the realm of absolutely possible when writing and yet insights about any attempt to make or interpret art must represent our place in a time and culture and all the thousands/millions of inputs that unconsciously go into our own "conscious/subconscious" writing/critiquing especially when connecting to "the muse" and there is a lot in this book that pojnts to Melville's cavorting with the muse!! as always it turns out that children, grandchildren and great grandchildren are my best teachers!!!gma
