«...only like an unreasoning wheel, which also hummingly soliloquizes; or rather, his body was a sentry-box and this soliloquizer on guard there, and talking all the time to keep himself awake.»

Just not interesting. Character based, slowly developed plot. Could barely read past the captain's bible sermon regarding Jonah.

Fantastic. An absolute joy to read. I've just this second turned the final page and already I find myself wanting to start the whole journey again.
