![]() ![]() I should say the only negative review for this is sometime it felt a little too British to me. This definitely won't be my last Greene book I'll read. There's a few stuff to soak in and I kind of lost where I really was for awhile. This novel I wouldn't say is a really quick read, but I couldn't stop think about it when I had to put it down for breaks. Than we have Rose who is essentially the good character, but she does she doesn't think clearly when it comes to love. Let look a Pinkie, he's a murderer, but he's also doesn't smoke, gamble, take drugs, and he's a virgin. No one in this book is really good and no one is really evil either. You get a strong sense of Catholic philosophy in the book an with the comes the question of good and evil. In fact, this one had some novel quality that separates the book from it's genre. Unlike some written before Greene, to me, this didn't feel cheep or too pulpy. Brighton Rock is a well written crime thriller novel. I've never read Graham Greene before, but I'd say this is a good place to start. ![]()
