If you've long since worked your way through the Life & Fate and Ulysses dramatizations, never fear, there's now the Big Read Moby-Dick. Tilda Swinton gets first toss of the harpoon. (I'm pretty sure Ishmael wouldn't say "lath and plaster" that way, but what the hell, it's Tilda Swinton.)

Bayerische Staatsoper is polling the fb delegation to find out what we want to see them webcast this year. Vote early and often here.
