To be honest, I really started reading this because people cite Melville as one of Blood Meridian’s inspirations.
Just hit the 1/4 mark, just after a few chapters detailing the inventory and stocking of a whaling ship before the voyage, and then Ishmael s own personal bestiary of the sea’s whales.
Holy shit, dude.
Those were supposed to be the *boring* chapters??
Why did I wait so long to read this.
