Chapter 34 of "Moby-Dick" by Herman Melville is titled "The Cabin-Table." In this chapter, the narrative shifts its focus away from the action involving the hunt for the white whale, Moby Dick, and instead provides a detailed description of the daily life on the whaling ship Pequod, particularly in the ship's cabin.

Captain Ahab is not present in this chapter, and the narrative gives readers a glimpse into the relationships and dynamics among the various crew members. It also explores the role of the ship's cabin as a communal space where the crew gathers to eat, socialize, and unwind. The chapter describes the meals, the conversation, and the general atmosphere among the crew members during their time in the cabin.

This chapter provides a bit of a respite from the intense pursuit of Moby Dick and serves to further develop the characters and their interactions on the ship. It's a moment of relative calm in the midst of the larger narrative's high tension and suspense.
