Greetings Sgnr Mountanto.
Do you really love Melville? Don't you think he goes on rather a lot? And for a straight guy he didn't half go into loving descriptions of men's bodies. Or was that me?

I admit he overdit it in "Billy Bud" but I think at least "Bartleby" and "Moby Dick" are great. Especial the above mentioned first chapter, the sermon and the ending. Sure the chapters about whales anatomy are rather long, but at least original.
