“Bartleby, the Sailor” | topic: Melville, Coetzee, Camus, Stuyvesant High | a conversation with David Partikian

David Partikian rejoins the pod to talk about his new Substack under the moniker "Bartleby The Sailor." We start with a bit of Melville, and then discuss his essays in more detail before musing on life growing up in Peter Cooper Village, and our differing experiences in the school system in New York City.
