I've slowly been working my way thru Typee. I found a nice 3-in-1 hardcover at a thrift store that also has Omoo and Mardi. I doubt I'll be reading those other two anytime soon. I'm halfway through Typee and it already feels repetitive. Moby Dick does rule and I look forward to revisiting it sometime in the next few years. Also, this past summer I hiked the Monument Mountain in MA, it was incredibly beautiful. quote:On August 5, 1850, Nathaniel Hawthorne and Herman Melville enjoyed a well-chronicled picnic hike up Monument Mountain. A thunderstorm forced them to seek refuge in a cave where a lengthy and vigorous discussion ensued, inspiring powerful ideas for Melville’s new book, Moby-Dick, which he dedicated to Hawthorne.
