About this title

Review:

"A monumental biography...brilliant and admirable, capturing not only the pity and the despair, the anger and the nihilism of Greene's witness, but also the incorrigible sense of fun."--Auberon Waugh"Probably the best biography ever of a living author."--Philip French"An astonishingly thorough yet readable story, hard-nosed yet sympathetic, which portrays not only the writer himself but the times he lived through in Proustian detail."--Margaret Atwood"A great writer who spoke brilliantly to a whole generation."--Alec Guinness"From the Hardcover edition."

Book Description:

A chronicle of the most tumultuous and productive years of Graham Greene's life. 'As close as we will ever get to the man.' J. G. Ballard, The Times
