Octavo; xxvi, 183 pages, cloth; two indentations in the dust jacket at the top joint Greene's gift, as a novelist, "was to locate the moment of crisis when a character loses his faith, religious or otherwise, and life is exposed in all its drab wonder. By the time of his death in 1991, Greene had more than thirty novels to his name: he was a prolific chronicler of wretchedness and damaged faith. . Over a period of fifty years, the British Catholic weekly 'The Tablet' provided Greene with a forum for both his works-in-progress and his frequently unorthodox religious views. A writer of religious doubt rather than of religious certainty." - Ian Thomson. Most of this material is collected here for the first time outside of 'The Tablet'. Includes "Why I Am Still A Catholic", a biographical interview by John Cornwell of 85 year-old Greene. Also excerpts from MONSIGNOR QUIXOTE. Also the first appearance of the Graham Greene - Peter Leslie correspondence.

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. When Graham Greene passed away in 1991 at 86, he was recognized as a significant Catholic writer, known for his exploration of sin and challenging themes. His work in the British Catholic journal The Tablet allowed him to share both his literary endeavors and unconventional religious perspectives. Greene was particularly fascinated by martyrdom, and his experiences in 1930s Mexico, where Roman Catholicism faced severe oppression, inspired impactful journalism first published in The Tablet. This collection features four of his Mexico despatches: "Mexican Sunday," "A Catholic Adventurer and his Mexican Journal," "In Search of a Miracle," and "The Dark Virgin." Additionally, it includes a long essay on the Assumption, "Our Lady and Her The Only Figure of Perfect Love," from 1951, along with 26 book reviews for The Tablet's "Fiction Chronicle." Greene's reviews highlight his broad-mindedness, praising works by authors such as Ignazio Silone and Karel Capek. This volume gathers Greene's contributions to The Tablet, much of which has not been published in fifty years. It also features "Two Friends," an essay detailing Greene's friendship with diplomat Peter Leslie, alongside previously unseen correspondence between them.
