I wrote a long paper about Greene for my 12th grade English class in 1962. If you do like this book, then go back and read The Heart of the Matter and The End of the Affair. They are better: that's all I remember and this quote from a French Romantic: "The heart has many places that don't exist and into them enters suffering that they may have existence". That captures the book.

Try Malcolm Lowry's, Under the Volcano, or Joyce Cary's, The Horses Mouth. These are my 2 most loved books by non-Irish and non-French writers
