Provides an account of the annual twenty-five-hour nonstop reading of Melville’s Moby-Dick. With some trepidation, the author joined the ranks of the Melvillians, among the world’s most obsessive literary aficionados, to participate in the event for its full length, from 'Call Me Ishmael' to the destruction of the Pequod.
