Links We Liked, 23 July, 2008: White Whale Edition
Meg Guroff wrote to let me know about her labour of love, powermobydick.com, an online, annotated edition of Herman Melville's masterpiece, Moby Dick. There are other online editions out there, but this one is presented clearly and simply, with annotations that 'announce' themselves as you mouse over the relevant word or passage. Search, and a nifty T-shirt are apparently coming soon. As some readers will know I'm a big fan of this novel and while I've had time so far only to scratch the surface of the site, I expect to be coming back to it quite often.
