In my opinion Moby Dick is a really great book stuffed with a lot of unnecessary filler material. Loved the quotable passages, the well-drawn characters, and the adventure; hated the endless chapters on the characteristics of various whale species. I'm told those chapters are supposed to be allegorical, but of what I have no idea.
