MOBY DICK -re-read by Mussmann

November 8th, 2020

Moby Dick 

I am re-reading Moby Dick.

I have done a lot of thinking about

Herman Melville’s great book and

have made 3 theater productions

based on the book.

This time I am going very slowly

through each chapter and feasting

on each delight.

There are some phrases that

haunt me such as the last 

sentence of Chapter # 34

“And as when Spring and Summer 

had departed that wild Logan of

the woods, burying himself in the’ hollow of a tree, 

lived out the winter there, 

sucking his own paws; 

so, in his inclement, howling old age,

Ahab’s soul, shut up in a carved trunk of his body, 

there fed upon the sullen paws of its gloom!”

This is such a beautiful and complicated

sentence it does one good to type each

word to understand the structure and

the content of the sentence.
