A Burnt-out Case

No serious writer of this century has more thoroughly invaded and shaped the public imagination than did Graham Greene * The Time * A superb storyteller * New York Times * Graham Greene taught us to understand the social and economic cripples in our midst. He taught us to look at each other with new eyes. I don't suppose his influence will ever disappear -- Auberon Waugh * Independent * A masterly storyteller... An enormously popular writer who was also one of the most significant novelists of his time * Newsweek * One of our greatest authors... Greene had the sharpest eyes for trouble, the finest nose for human weaknesses, and was pitilessly honest in his observations... For experience of a whole century he was the man within -- Norman Sherry * Independent * Mr Greens' extraordinary power of plot-making, of suspense and of narration...moves continuously both in time and space and in emotion * The Times * His style is spare, that's what is so beautiful. His novels are genuine romans philosophies - novels illustrating ideas * Piers Paul Read * In a class by himself...the ultimate chronicler of twentieth-century man’s consciousness and anxiety * William Golding *
