Is Moby Dick worth the read?

Nice try, Floyd.

Read In the Heart of the Sea instead. It's non-fiction about the whaling ship Essex. If you dig that, then try Moby Dick.

They made a movie about it, but I can only vouch for the book.

I’m all in with the classics, so I say yes. I even enjoyed the whale encyclopedia in the middle.

Read Billy Budd and Bartleby, the Scrivener too.
