The reason I ask is that Led Zeppelin has a song called "Moby Dick" based on that American lit. Even back then on the album "Led Zeppelin II" never understood the song. Even today I do not.Good book lot's of undertones and political symbolism a lot of it criticism of the united states
I did finely force myself to look up the plot of "Moby Dick", tonight, just now, but I don't get the plot.
It was long, complicated, but seemed like the stereotypical "guy trying to kill an animal" plot.
Ahab and Ishmael (my guess) not understanding the plot, are supposed to end up lovers, but someone dies in all that and a spirit is all that is left to chase?
It's not like I have several devices with access to dozens of Cliffs-Notes-style summaries of the novel, or even the full text of the actual book on Project Gutenberg.
