It has been just a few weeks since the author Herman Wouk passed away. In most of the articles talking about his work, they always said he was an "old-fashioned" author. I took it to mean he didn't have any of the irony or cynicism we see in many modern writers. That really made me curious.
So at the Legal Aid Fund book sale at Wilson College last weekend I was happy to find an old copy of
The Caine Mutiny, which was Wouk's most famous book. I'm well into the book now, with the paranoid and incompetent Captain Queeg. Kay! I'll have more to say when I finish the book.
