Moby Dick's primary influence is the Bible, Blood Meridian's primary influences are the Bible and Moby Dick. Read the bible if you haven't.

Butcher's Crossing by John Williams was a little closer in theme and characters to Moby Dick, but wasn't a complete rip off. I enjoyed it throughly.

Heart of Darkness

butcher's crossing is nothing like either of them, at all. Other than the fact they speak english in the novel. Seriously, nothing alike.

How does Moby Dick compare with Twilight?
You have your answer.

I thought both were fantastic, I liked the contrasting styles of the two books. What did you not like about The Road?

I don't really get the Twilight comparison other than the fact that both are read in highschool.
