All Comments on 'Moral Right'

Marvelously inventive and original, and very comic. And it's excellent social satire. The matter-of-fact (-sounding) explanations of an artist's legal rights made this highly improbable tale seem more realistic than it had any right to be. And the writing style is mature and well-controlled. I've never before seen present tense in a narrative actually work, but here it works just fine. And I love the fake-Navajo business--including the strange alphabet characters--that John cooked up. Five stars and a Favorite for this one.

Shakespeare got it right 400 years ago: "First, we kill all the lawyers," and, "The law is an ass." With all the social upheaval going on everywhere one looks, this story's legal premise actually sounds plausible . . . although we know better, at least for the present. 5*

Stupid. Just a long-winded waste.
