Reviewing The Classics Without Bothering To Read Them Moby Dick

Tweet

Call Me Arthur, Here be my review of Herman Melville's Moby Dick, despite not having read it. Why should that stop me reviewing the book? It is clearly a whale of a tale about someone called Dick (short for Richard) who listens to a great deal of techno music, especially the work of Moby. Hence his name, Moby Dick. Many of Dick's friends are not Moby fans so they dislike his obsession as they would rather listen to ABBA, Green Day and Jedwood. Dick finds that no one visits his house and that when he takes his MOBY CD's to other people's houses they refuse to play Moby tracks for him. Dick eventually meets Moby who tells him that it doesn't really matter. Dick feels it does matter, and gets unhappy enough to try to kill himself, but he is rescued by a Samaritan who happens to also be a Moby fan. They fall in love, and get married, but while swimming on their honeymoon, they get swallowed by a giant whale. A rather fragile story, almost Porcelain in its fragility. Maybe one day I'll read it.
