'He was, he is, the best of critics' Dilys Powell, Guardian

Collected Essays contains nearly eighty essays, reviews and occasional pieces composed between novels, plays and travel books over four prolific decades. From Henry James and Somerset Maugham to Ho Chi Minh and Kim Philby, the range of subjects is eclectic and stimulating; his subjects brought vividly to life. The resulting collection is as revealing as autobiography and characteristically rich in humour, insight and doubt.

Reviews for Collected Essays

An eclectic array of writing. 'A man should be judged by his enmities as well as by his friendships,' says Greene in his Author's Note; and so we travel the world, from Hollywood to Sierra Leone, learning of his loves and hates, and hearing his views on a diverse range of subjects, including Henry James, Beatrix Potter and John Buchan. Revealing, insightful and wise writing. (Kirkus UK)
