Recently I've been reading real life accounts of sea exploration and I got it in my head to give Melville's fictional sea tale a read for the first time. I also have cetaceaphobia so I thought this story might help me confront my fears somewhat without having to see an actual leviathan in person. I was wondering if anyone else has read Moby Dick, or anything else by Melville, and what your thoughts are. Here's a passage I found particularly interesting: "A ...

Don's spoil it for me, I'm certainly reading the series, but could you give me an idea on why are they becoming a phenomenon? Is Twilight the new Vampire Chronicles?

Usually, the movie industry makes it a lot easier, although it's not always accurate... How do you picture then, fiction characters in your head? Maybe a public figure, an actor, a friend, a family member...
