In one of these places, a novel’s narrator puzzles over a “boggy, soggy, squitchy picture” in a “thoroughly besmoked” oil painting. A Decameron-esque collection titled for this sort of place includes multiple stories from a student, a Sicilian, and a Spanish Jew, and is set in Sudbury, Massachusetts. In a novel, an old lady cries out “clam or cod?” in one of these places, where the narrator first meets a man smoking a tomahawk pipe. “Paul Revere’s Ride” appears in a collection of “Tales of” one of these places by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. A novel’s narrator becomes “bosom-friends” with a former prince of Rokovoko at one of these places called Spouter. For 10 points, early chapters of Moby-Dick are set in what sort of place where Queequeg and Ishmael are lodgers? ■END■
