Opis
Graham Greene, known for his iconic novels, also wrote extraordinary short stories. Here some of the best have been arranged into pairs - to be read as a duel or duet - by novelist and Greene aficionado, Yiyun Li.
Twenty-two of Greene's very best stories are collected here, each of them bearing the hallmark themes that characterise his great novels: innocence and vengeance, love and hate, pity and violence.
Writer and Greene aficionado, Yiyun Li, has arranged the stories into pairs, to be read together in contrast or in harmony – as a duel or a duet. In doing so Li draws out the extraordinary power in Greene's work, creating an ingenious new perspective on a writer we thought we knew. Unexpected, surprising and wide-ranging, this is the short fiction of one of the twentieth century's greatest and most adored storytellers, revealing his brilliance as never before.
'No twentieth-century writer had a subtler mind for human comparison' - Zadie Smith
'Greene had wit and grace and character and story and a transcendent universal compassion that places him for all time in the ranks of world literature' - John le Carré
'One of the most important British writers of the twentieth century' - Daily Telegraph
'A superb storyteller' - New York Times
'One of the finest writers of any language' - Washington Post
'One of our greatest authors' - Independent
