Moby-Dick — The Typhoon

A storm takes the ship and leaves her — corposants on the yards, and a compass turned gently wrong.

Retold for sleep from Moby-Dick by Herman Melville, first published in 1851 and long out of copyright. The story is Melville's; every sentence here is our own.

Low, slow and spacious — a gentle cadence with long pauses, tuned for the dark and made to be drifted off to.
