"Troubling book. Cooped up on a couch with a freak knee injury, i read much of this in two days. It makes me wonder about Catholicism, about pain, about the messed up martyrs who've gotten me where I am today, and about my own (un)sacred journey. And thank God I'm not a Catholic. "

    " For being his most acclaimed novel "The Power and the Glory" was quite average compared to "The Quite American". At no point did I feel completely engaged with this novel. "

    " I thought it was a realistic personality study between the priest and the lieutenant who's hunting him down. I've heard of Greene writing more suspenseful, spy-related stuff, and I'm eager to read those. This book was very different from that, but very good. "

About Graham Greene

Graham Greene (1904–1991) was an English novelist, short-story writer, and playwright. He served with the British secret service during the Second World War. His novels are often set in places in a state of seedy decay, and many of his locations, such as Vietnam in The Quiet American and Cuba in Our Man in Havana, became international crisis spots. Most of his novels have been filmed, including The Third Man, which the author first wrote as a film treatment. He was named Companion of Honour and received the Order of Merit, among numerous other awards.
