Quoted from rai:
Moby Dick is my favorite book and sometimes called the greatest novel ever. Interesting it was a flop when first released and was rediscovered after the authors death.
“Melville died in 1891, largely forgotten by the literary world. By the 1920s, scholars had rediscovered his work, particularly Moby-Dick.”

I just finished Moby Dick about a week ago - i was determined to slug it out and finish it no matter what. I didn't care for it at all. At all.

Dipping into some Charles Dickens since I've read everything else in the house - finishing up David Copperfield tonight or tomorrow and just knocked off Oliver Twist before Moby Dick.
