reminded me of a favorite Internet book reviewer, and linked me to two of his critical pieces I had not seen.
- Moby-Dick “The plot could be wholly told in about 15 pages, none ommitted. The rest is philosophy and whale-encyclopedia.”
- Mrs. Dalloway “Just WTF is this book about ? Making fun of the London “drawing rooms” society of 100 years ago ? M…kay, whatever.”
- The Odyssey “The style is heavy, but there’s no other way out, I guess. They spake (hehe…) this way back then…”

My favourite book review is of The Iliad. It goes something like, “a litany of groin injuries, listed in verse.”
I wrote it.

This is why I don’t like Moby Dick. Dude just summed it up in two sentences. Bam. I like that guy.

Yeah, the other two are kind of spurious, but I can’t disagree about Moby Dick. Bleah.
