“The Good Captain” comes to an end.
After four months (!) The Good Captain finally concluded tonight. It’s been a fascinating journey, and it leaves me totally pumped for the next one. You can find the story archived on this site, by clicking any of the Good Captain links. They’ll lead to this page. Now, it’s time to start my presentation for BarcampLA5, which begins tomorrow. A perfect bookend. Perhaps this will become a habit, launching and closing at BarCamp. So the Loose-Fish will turn its attention away from the world of Melville (although not forever - there’s still a big whale waiting out there. It tasks me. It heaps me,) and enter the fascinating domain of America’s second most successful poet of all time, the complex, flawed and utterly human Edgar Lee Masters. Spoon River, here we come.
