The Caine Mutiny: A Novel of World War II by Herman Wouk

4.0

Somehow also missed this review! Overall, this was much less good than Wouk’s grander series starting with The Winds of War - this is a much smaller scale story. The dialogue doesn’t age well (though it gives interesting historical insight into life for younger military men during and after WWII as a result), and the story itself is good but not amazing. Overall, I did enjoy it, even if I’m not sure I fully followed the pro-military stodginess at the end. One thing to say: the movie definitely aged MUCH worse (and is painful to watch, in my opinion). Listening to the book is definitely more fun.
