harrisonpunch 's review for:

Billy Budd, Sailor by Herman Melville
3.0

Enjoyable in parts, I feel Herman Melville can real write powerful pros. The overall antagonism against the new legislative regime going around Britain at the time didn't really sit well with me. I had the feeling the writer wanted to talk about that, though I didn't really strike me as something pertinent today. Interesting talk at times about naval justice, good case study.
