This summer I've promised myself to read a number of books I've always wanted to but never have. First up, I'm starting with Moby Dick.[/QUOTEA
An excellent choice. Melville's earlier work is uneven but his mature cast arguably was Moby Dick. Billy Budd crowns his vocation.
Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre Dame is equally haunting and introspective, a voyage across the sea of the human heart.
