JoshMark said: After Moby Dick, this is my favorite work by Melville and one of my favorite works ever. The story of the clerk who prefers not to do his job and refuses to give any reason at all resonates on so many levels. It's beautifully written and very memorable. Modern-day tales of existential angst have nothing on Bartleby.
