The Lawgiver, which tracks communications between characters concerning a proposed movie about the Biblical leader Moses, is the latest literary effort by the author of The Caine Mutiny. The Winds of War and Marjorie Morningstar are among Herman Works' Wouks, er, Wouk's works.

Hope Wouk's agent got a hefty advance for its nonagenarian client.
