Moby Dick - Herman Melville - A Short Summary & Review

Posted by a.d. elliott

A short summary of the book Moby Dick:

Ahab's tale of failed revenge done Salty.

(It's a whale of a tale)

My favorite Herman Melville quote from the book:

"Ignorance is the parent of fear."

Questions I pondered while reading:

It is possible to completely know something?

Why are people surprised when exploited beings become violent?

My review of the book Moby Dick:

A loquaciously beautiful story.

Book Nerd badge of honor.

135 chapters felt like a great accomplishment.
