Not OP. I’ve personally never read Moby Dick — been meaning to at some point — but I don’t see any purpose in continuing to slog through a book that you find interminably boring. It’s just a cargo cult mentality of becoming “cultured”.
My world expanded quite a bit when I realized that not all the classics were worth anything to me, and that some works that people turn their noses up at are far more valuable culturally.
