Wow, you really go the extra mile! I was (incorrectly) thinking 5 Views was just going to be excerpts from the book. Now my curiosity is thoroughly satisfied. By the way, I looked for the M-D Starbucks tumbler online, but unfortunately it can’t be bought for less than around $60.
Glad to get some feedback from someone in the know! There were definitely some sections of the translation that needed more attention but on the whole it was surprisingly good (or at least intelligible). Thanks for reading!

I hadn't thought to check eBay! I just looked and saw that they also sold a Moby Dick mug back in 2014, so I guess they've been on a Melville kick longer than I thought https://www.ebay.com/itm/133735469306?_trksid=p4375194.c101949.m162918
