'A great writer who spoke brilliantly to a whole generation. Prophet-like' Alec Guinness
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY ZADIE SMITH
Into the intrigue and violence of Indo-China comes Pyle, a young idealistic American sent to promote democracy through a mysterious 'Third Force'. As his naive optimism starts to cause bloodshed, his friend Fowler, a cynical foreign correspondent, finds it hard to stand aside and watch. But even as he intervenes he wonders why: for the sake of politics, or for love?
Graham Greene was born in 1904. On coming down from Balliol College, Oxford, he worked for four years as sub-editor on The Times. He established his reputation with his fourth novel, Stamboul Train. In 1935 he made a journey across Liberia, described in Journey Without Maps, and on his return was appointed film critic of the Spectator. In 1926 he had been received into the Roman Catholic Church and visited Mexico in 1938 to report on the religious persecution there. As a result he wrote The Lawless Roads and, later, his famous novel The Power and the Glory. Brighton Rock was published in 1938 and in 1940 he became literary editor of the Spectator. The next year he undertook work for the Foreign Office and was stationed in Sierra Leone from 1941 to 1943. This later produced the novel The Heart of the Matter, set in West Africa.
As well as his many novels, Graham Greene wrote several collections of short stories, four travel books, six plays, three books of autobiography - A Sort of Life, Ways of Escape and A World of My Own (published posthumously) - two of biography and four books for children. He also contributed hundreds of essays, and film and book reviews, some of which appear in the collections Reflections and Mornings in the Dark. Many of his novels and short stories have been filmed and The Third Man was written as a film treatment. Graham Greene was a member of the Order of Merit and a Companion of Honour. He died in April 1991.
Graham Greene果然是講故事的高手,也是為數不多的在討論信仰和宗教時不讓人反感的作傢,在討論戰爭,愛情和友情的時候也是把火候掌握的很好,如他一直重復說的那樣,In wars as well as in love it's almost impossible to be disengaged.

評分Fowler 也許是我看過的書裏最喪的男主角
評分The quiet American wants to change the world to do the duty but does not clearly know what the world is ,finally gets harm.
早从中国大陆要出版Lolita就闻知主万的翻译很不怎么样,但是因为本身对纳博科夫并不感冒,倒也没有在意。毕竟国内好的翻译家为数寥寥,而且除非是翻译从业者,也很少有人会特别重视文学翻译者。毕竟像傅雷那种身兼翻译家以及文学研究学者,并享受盛名的人并不多。扯远了,只是...
評分格雷厄姆.格林,陪跑诺贝尔奖21次,比大家熟知的村上春树次数要久,比一直希望得到奥斯卡的迪卡普里奥时间要长,但这丝毫不影响他在世界文坛的地位。 在谈到为什么格林总是获不了奖的原因时,诺奖评委阿图尔•朗科维斯说: 三十年前,他曾经给我留下了深刻的印象。但是格林太...
評分有一个时期我很不喜欢关于热带地区的文学和电影。但格雷厄姆*格林,这个固执的旅行家非要把人拽到南北回归线中间不可。《权力与荣耀》令我又开始回忆赫尔佐格或布努艾尔,光滑如蜡的棕黄色皮肤、塌鼻子和厚嘴唇与汗淋淋的白人演员,或者西部片里纬度低一些的场景中出现的一...

評分“非常好看的一本书,各种意义上都非常好看的一本书。”读完格雷厄姆·格林《安静的美国人》,我不假思索,便写下上述这段近乎词穷的文字。然后便是唏嘘,相见恨晚,接下来,更是不遗余力地将其推荐给身边的文字爱好者,一遍又一遍。 关于格林21次与诺贝尔文学奖的纠缠无果,虽...
