Despite only living at his Arrowhead home for 12 years, Melville\u2019s most prolific period of writing occured here in Berkshire County, surrounded by the natural beauty of the Berkshire Hills and friends such as Nathaniel Hawthorne, Oliver Wendell Holmes and others.<\/p>\n<h2>Call Me Melville<\/h2>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/callmemelville.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Call Me Melville<\/a><\/strong> is a county-wide celebration of all things Melville. Whether it is the view outside of Melville\u2019s Arrowhead study, or Park Square in Pittsfield, the area had a profound effect on the author and his writing.
