{"product_id":"graham-greene-richard-greene-9780393066425","title":"Graham Greene: A Life in Letters","description":"One of the undisputed masters of twentieth-century English prose, Graham Greene (1904-1991) wrote tens of thousands of personal letters. This exemplary volume presents a new and engrossing account of his life constructed out of his own words. Impeccably edited by scholar Richard Greene, the letters--including many unavailable even to his official biographer--give a new perspective on a life that combined literary achievement, political action, espionage, travel, and romantic entanglement. The letters describe his travels in such places as Mexico, Vietnam, and Cuba, where he observed the struggles of mankind with a compassionate and truthful eye. Letters to friends such as Evelyn Waugh and Muriel Spark offer a glimpse into the literary culture in which he wrote, while others reveal the agonies of his heart. The sheer range of experience contained in Greene's correspondence defies comparison.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Greene\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0393066428\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780393066425\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
