A Whaler's Dictionary, Paperback/Dan Beachy-Quick

Taking both form and inspiration from Ishmael s abandoned ``Cetalogical Dictionary,`` this highly original work muses on myth, representation, language, nature, consciousness, notions of spiritual quest, and other elements of Melville s masterpiece. From ``Accuracy`` to ``Wound,`` ``Adam`` to ``Void,`` ``Babel`` to ``Silence,`` these cross-referential, highly associative entries comprise an utterly singular work of art. A Whaler s Dictionary is the mesmerizing product of a total immersion into one of the greatest novels in the English language.
