Items related to A World of My Own: A Dream Diary
A daily record of Graham Greene's dreams over the last 25 years of his life, waking four or five times a night to jot down key words. In the months before his death in April 1991 he made this small selection for publication to entertain and amuse his readers. In his introduction he describes the connections between the "secret world of dreams" and "the real world". He clearly felt at ease in this world in which he gave free rein to his love of adventure or his delight in the absurd. It is a world of unusual events - from memorable literary moments: his meeting with Henry James on a river boat in Bolivia, his role in Evelyn Waugh's shooting of that notorious guerilla chief, W.H. Auden, to his attempt to murder Goebbels with a cigarette, and his surprising appointment as Archbishop of Westminister. By the author of "The Power and the Glory", "The Heart of the Matter", "The Quiet American", "The End of the Affair", "Travels with my Aunt", "The Third Man", "The Comedians" and "Our Man in Havanna".
