A preface to Greene

About this book

"In this book, Cedric Watts outlines the life and cultural background of Graham Greene and looks at the effect they had on his writing. Starting with a biographical account and looking in detail at several famous works, the book sets Greene firmly in the context of his times. It also: looks at his writing techniques, recurring themes and imaginative preoccupations; covers three of his works: Brighton Rock, The Power and the Glory and the film, The Third Man; and lists people and places of importance in Greene's life."--Jacket.
