For generations, literary critics have sought to decode them.
And now, at last, the mystery has been solved.
One hundred and fifty four years after the publication of Moby-Dick, tattoologists from The Tattered Coat have succeeded in translating pictograms that Melville described as “the work of a departed prophet and seer . . . who, by those hieroglyphic marks, had written out on [Queequeg’s] body a complete theory of the heavens and the earth, and a mystical treatise on the art of attaining truth.”
A major discovery that could lead to an end to poverty, the spiritual enlightenment of millions, and peace in our time, this literary Rosetta stone has finally been cracked.
