Amazing -

It was a sub par adventure story that seemed to drag on at points even in the abridged version and in it's dragging on did not offer engaging enough insights to be considered worth while.
The narrator did great.
Overhyped?

Any additional comments?
Towering. Audacious. Overblown. Musical. Haunting. Breathtaking. Human. Poetic. Soaring. Thrilling. Epic. Gut-wrenching. In short, amazing.Obviously, I loved this book. My advice to anyone who is on the fence about taking it up:
1. Read “In the Heart of the Sea” by Nathanial Philbrick first. This is a non-fiction book about a ship that really was sunk by a huge whale in the 1820’s. Melville knew this true story, and certainly based some of Moby-Dick on it. I think this book before Moby-Dick gave me a greater appreciation for Moby-Dick.
2. Consider reading “Why Read Moby-Dick?” also by Nathaniel Philbrick. I don’t think this book is as good an intro to Moby-Dick as “In the Heart of the Sea” but I did pick up a few overall themes and ideas that helped orient me as I read Moby-Dick.
3. Read the abridged version of Moby-Dick. I actually listened to it as an abridged audiobook read by William Hootkins. It was just six hours long but I was enthralled.
I had heard so many horror stories about people being forced to read this book in school that I was actually afraid to read it. But now that I have experienced it, I feel that I am ready to tackle the entire novel. Not today, but someday soon. Because it was so good I really didn’t want it to end.
Prep, get the abridged version, & you will love it
