To finish this book you must be as single-minded as Captain Ahab.

Stopped in my tracks by an unexpected paragraph on the interplay between free will, determinism, and chance. Exceeding my expectations in every way.

Did not anticipate enjoying this as much as I am…

I am starting Moby Dick, a book I have feared, avoided, been drawn to, been fascinated by, been intimidated by, and taken for granted. I cannot quite understand the forces that compel me to take on challenges like this except that momentum has gathered to a point where I feel helpless to resist.
