A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

I hope it means DJ Icepack is giving Melville's novel a spin. Or maybe one of the graphic novel adaptations of it? Either way, first time readers of the novel might dig my pal Cyrus Patell's annotations to every day of last year's Moby-Dick Big Read ahistoryofnewyork.com... or my own top 5 tips for first-time readers: www.greatwhatsit.com...

Last year I was introduced to something a little more complicated than fencing: sword-and-buckler fighting. Having a weapon and a shield makes more types of parries possible and varies the type of attacks the competitors use. They hold their bodies differently than one would for fencing or for boxing.

Hi, I love the Moby Dick theme, great comments, thanks for those Moby Dick links. I read in a review of it once that it was most suited to someone who is dying or going through a grave crisis. I picked it up while I thought I might have a horrible disease (bit of a hypochondriac here) and then when I found I was okay I put it down. But it is there for me as it is for everyone, a meaty literary journey.
