内容説明

A chance discovery of lost papers in a shop cellar in Ealing, unexpected connections, lost friendships rekindled at the funeral of a Catholic priest: thus, not unlike one of Green's own novels, began Bill West's search to find the truth about one of the 20th century's most important writers. Through intensive and scrupulous detective work, West has uncovered new material (letters, galleys of Greene's novels and FBI documents) which explain the aspects of Greene's life which have eluded biographers and readers. Told as a detective story, this book exposes the reasons of Greene's sudden self-imposed exile, his fascination with the mafia, his loathing of America, the origins of his obsessions with Catholicism, and espionage and his own involvement with MI6.
