Judgment Of Books Brighton Rock

Hale knew, before he had been in Brighton three hours, that they meant to murder him. With his inky fingers and his bitten nails, his manner cynical and nervous, anybody could tell he didn't belong belong to the early summer sun, the cool Whitsun wind off the sea, the holiday crowd. The quintessential noir story: which one to pick? When I first started reading crime stories, I would point without hesitation at Chandler and/or Hammet. Much later, I settled on the French school, starting with

Rating: 4.25* of fiveThe Publisher Says: In this classic novel of murder and menace, Graham Greene lays bare the soul of a boy of seventeen who stalks Brighton's tawdry boardwalk with apathy on his face and murder in his heart. Pinkie, the boy with death at his fingertips, is not just bad, he worships in the temple of evil, just as his parents worshipped in the house of God.

A dark, wet & windy day (like today!) is probably the ideal time to stay indoors & listen to this BBC full cast audio version of Graham Greene's classic story Brighton Rock. I must admit that I really like this novel. I've probably read Brighton Rock too many times & I even enjoyed the 1947 & 2010 film versions.

I stepped into the murky world of 'Brighton Rock' with a sense of reluctance; I had heard glowing things about it from fellow readers and I wondered, after finishing 7 novels and loving every one of them to their bits: would this be the book that would let me down a little and get the first 4-star



When I started reading this I thought to myself, I bet he wanted this to be made into a film and now Ive checked and it was made into a film twice, it seems but after reading it there are things that make me think that it might not work as well as a film as it does as a novel.The reason why is that we are often in the head of one of the characters at a time basically seeing out of their eyes and part of the mystery involved here is due to the limited perspective of the character who has

A Catholic is more capable of evil than anyone. Brighton Rock I signed this paper saying I would sleep with a writer. Actually, the document in question wasnt profession specific, but name specific. I swirled my J and en and nifer next to a guy named Christopher. But, as it turned out, the guy I agreed to sleep with for pretty much life became an editor and a writer. And ever since he started writing at night instead of sleeping adequately, Ive had this problem. The problem is that after hes
