This epic story begins, as most readers are aware, with, "Call me Ishmael." Unfortunately, that is where the easy reading ends.

I just finished reading DC, and although I enjoyed it, I was also heartily glad to be finished. The Victorian ideals did not wear well through such a long novel. I began to feel that Dicken's emotional values were creepy. To me, Dickens showed himself in this book to be primarily concerned with ...             The Odyssey (Penguin Classics)39 reviews Homer Penguin Classics, 2006 Stick with Rieu's original... + A classic + = + Older and Wiser             The Stranger1 review Albert Camus Vintage, 1954 Rebels Against the Gods Albert Camus finished his first novel, "The Stranger", when he could not leave Paris during its first year of occupation by the German army in 1940-41.
