That's a weird looking copy of Moby-Dick, OP. I never knew Melville had a pen name.

"Moby-Dick; or Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace"

My favorite line from Infinite Jest is probably

"I am a product of the internet. A Flat Stanley strung out on technicolor heroin"

I think very few people are qualified to make this judgement. The more I read, the more I realise how much I overrated certain books in the past. Many of my reviews on Goodreads dropped from 4-5s to 2-3s after I started reading true patrician literature. People who have read less are going to make far worse suggestions.
