Ahab Turned Starbuck, Sir, It Is a Mild Wind and a Mild Looking Sky

Ahab was a boy harpooner of 18. He spent 40 years on the sea and has not been ashore in that time. His wife died when he was 50, leaving but one dent in his marriage pillow. Ahab's life is 'the masoned wall town of a captain's exclusiveness' The story will be published by Simon & Schuster next year.
