A bit heavy on the philosophical side. The historical context gave an interesting perspective. It was okay.

Melville’s writing style is not for everyone. I struggled to get through it, but the commentary helped a lot. Some parts felt too dragged.

Found it a bit slow-paced. I think the themes are very important and the author tries to teach a great moral lesson.

Melville at his finest. I love that it really made me think, though a bit slow at times.

A classic that still resonates today. The commentary and notes made it easier to understand Melville’s intent. A bit lengthy.
