## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Nice collection
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2014*

Melville and I have a complicated relationship. He was undoubted brilliant and a great writer. His work is much deeper, and more complex and nuanced than it often appears on the surface of a first reading. The enjoyment of reading Melville is for me personally in the subsequent analysis of it. The reading of it, however, (for me) feels like slow and deliberate torture. I often beg and plead for him to get the point. Sometimes it seems he goes on and on saying the same thing, or mundane details that seem irritatingly dry and irrelevant -- of course on further examination it is purposeful, but that is not always initially apparent until I go back and ask what the point was. I would therefore characterize Melville as a challenging read, rather than an enjoyable read; but a valuable read --well worth the time and effort, if the reader is so inclined to read beneath the surface.This is a nice collection, and I look forward to returning to it to read some of the selections which I did not this time. (Melville in small doses for me).

    Bartleby the Scrivener
  

*by F***U on Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2000*

I got this collection because it contains one of my favorite stories,  "Bartleby, the Scrivener".  It might be the first story about the  modern day worker :)  What do you do when confronted with someone who  suddenly refuses to conform to societal expectations?  What if this person  will not lift a finger to help himself?  Whose responsibility does he  become?Maybe we each have a breaking point, some boundary beyond which  the spirit would rebel and scream "I have received enough neglect and  I won't take it anymore!"  If I ever reached that breaking point,  would my cries also go unanswered?
