To read all of Melville's Cetology, or to skip that chapter...
Big Book Club's "What the Whale!"06/25/19 • 22 min
Who got the gold star for reading all about whale-fish, including the footnotes? Who is actually caught up on the reading? Who thinks Ahab is headed for a reconning of, well, mythic proportions?
And who is ready to read something completely different this week?
We referenced:
"I''ll Make a Man Out of You" from the Disney musical, Mulan.
On the tv show Friends, couple Ross and Rachel "take a break," and then have a fight about what it meant to "take a break" after Ross slept with another woman during the break.
