I'm with you on <>iMoby-Dick. I have an MA in English, and from high school through grad school, I was assigned to read it six times. I never once got past page 100.
Boooooooring.

Our prof was a master of Melville. Had us get into all the Biblical symbolisms in Moby Dick. That was TOUGH as most characters and ships in the novel had to do with the Bible. Billy Budd is one of the world's classics.
