Brighton Rock...Graham Green

After reading "The Human Factor", I picked up this book of the same author. And I just somehow managed to finish it. It just made no sense to me. Neither the story nor any implicit meanings which the author wanted to convey.

The story is about a boy "Pinkie", who is kind of involved in shady business, kills one person & more persons to hide the first murder. And then makes one girl [who kind of is the witness to first murder] his girlfriend & eventually marries her so that she cant testify against him. This girl also is blindly devoted to him for no odd reason. And the story goes on.

It was such a boring read for me. In Orkut's books community many people had kind of praised this book/author. Guess should check out what they liked about it.
