The old man and the sea. Robinson Crusoe.
Comment on LUNGS WERE A MISTAKE
BakerBagel@midwest.social 1 week agoI’m ready Moby Dick for the first yime right now and i absolutely love it! I love stories about the sea. I want to reread it again in a few years and do a journal about the book. I wanna be one of those freaks that writes a report about every chapter. I’ll post every one on my blog and forward the post to my aunt who’s a retired highschool English teacher. Let her know all those years as a public teacher weren’t for nothing.

Check out the movie In The Heart of the Sea. Got moderate reviews, but you might find something about it you enjoy.

I wonder if you would like the Mars Trilogy books by Kim Stanley Robinson. Same deep details, but about geography (on Mars).
Like Melville, he takes you into another world, in depth.
OTOH, you may hate the dryness!
In any case, you got me thinking I’ll take another pass at Moby Dick. Had the little kid’s book as a child and loved it. Haven’t read the novel for 30 years!
