A friend lent it to me in early October and I\u2019ve been making my way through it since. It has been strange to spend these past two weeks alternating between the fictional landscape of Arrakis, where water is a precious commodity to kill and die for, and the reality of a waterlogged, Sandy-stricken East Coast.\u00a0<strong>\u2014Clare Fentress<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here comes the lamest story of the hurricane: my Internet connection went out for several hours while I was streaming a movie. And while my story stinks, the movie didn\u2019t.\u00a0<em>Submarine<\/em>, the 2010 directorial debut of Richard Ayoade, is the familiar tale of an amorous and alienated fifteen-year-old guy. As such, it should vacillate between Salinger and\u00a0<em>Rushmore<\/em> until it vanishes in a puff of inexpertly exhaled cigarette smoke. But while works of the angst canon generally look at adult life with the righteous scorn of an as-yet uncorrupted adolescent mind (Bueller, Bueller),\u00a0<em>Submarine<\/em> casts both teenage melodrama and middle-aged compromise in the same awkward light. It is the kind of uncomfortable that comes from true things, and a very good movie.\u00a0[Note:\u00a0<em>Submarine<\/em> is based on a Joe Dunthorne novel that I haven\u2019t read yet because the \u201cread book first always\u201d rule doesn\u2019t apply during times of great peril.]\u00a0<strong>\u2014Samuel Fox<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u00a0<em>Paris Review<\/em> interns often find ourselves chatting about <em>Moby-Dick<\/em>. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s because one of us did a senior thesis on it, or because it\u2019s the book I\u2019ve been reading for the longest but have not finished (go easy on me\u2014I\u2019ve read<em> War and Peace<\/em> twice!), but it seems like Melville\u2019s whale tale comes up pretty often in our conversation.

There will be more than a hundred readers, and the quest to conquer this white whale of a book will take New Yorkers to three great bookstores in Brooklyn and Manhattan: Word in Greenpoint, Housings Works Bookstore Caf\u00e9 in Soho, and Molasses in Bushwick.
