In the Heart of the Sea by Nathaniel Philbrick
My rating:
didn't like it it was ok liked it really liked it it was amazing
add to my books
This is one of history's great true-life horror stories, and it finds an existential power in Philbrick's skillful retelling. Nantucket becomes a character so visceral, you'll feel the ache and oil of the whaling life. I never thought I'd be captivat...more

My rating:

add to my books
This book tears down our notions of a subject/object universe. It's a commitment to read, but if the book intersects with you at the right time of life (for me, college), then the effect can be blissfully disarming.

Noran Miss Pumkin Just got your book, look forward to the read now!

Lula Thank you for the invitation! Looking forward to reading "Head Cases". It's an important topic, especially with the injured soldiers returning from Iraq. Also something that happened to a family friend.

"Dead Men Walking" - read your excellent article in Discover.
