What version of Moby Dick should I read?
Im not much of a classic literature person but Moby Dick has been on my radar for a while. Being a marine biology major and enjoying stories about human flaw has me eager to pick up this read. Google says the Norton critical edition is best but there are a ton of versions to choose from.
Some critics on other versions seem like topics I’d honestly be interested in such as the history of whaling. I also have no problem reading books over 1000 pages.
I really just want a good translation that remains loyal to the original literature.
