Graham Greene: Friend and Brother af Leopoldo Duran (Bog)

The Enemy Within Reveals Graham Greene's mysterious double life and identity: the respected novelist who was also a spy, and whose life was based on deception. The author of The Power and the Glory, The Third Man, and other distinguished literary works is portrayed in this biography as a man devoted not only to creating works of fiction but also to creating fiction about himself. He was highly regarded as a Catholic novelist, yet Shelden shows that his faith was one of many masks Greene donned as a cover for a life devoted to misinfo., intrigue, and mystery. Draws on previously unseen material, including documents from his MI6/Secret Service dossier, and interviews with those who knew him.

Greene's fine sense of humor is displayed in this warm and far-reaching comic novel, Travels with My Aunt, a bestseller when it appeared originally. At his mother's funeral, Henry Pulling, a stuffy, retired bank manager with an interest in dahlias, meets his Aunt Augusta. The indomitable Aunt Augusta pulls Henry along on a whirlwind adventure traveling with an old lover, Wordsworth; Curran, the founder of a doggies' church; O'Toole, the C.I.A. man obsessed by statistics and his counter-culture daughter; and old Mr. Visconti, who has been wanted by Interpol for twenty years. Henry describes their activities with shock and bewilderment, and finally with the tenderness, of a fellow traveler going their way. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.

Romanen følger en midaldrende, tilsyneladende anonym medarbejder i den britiske efterretningstjeneste, hvis liv vendes på hovedet, da en intern sikkerhedssag afslører, at der er en muldvarp i tjenesten. Mistanken, forhørene og presset blotlægger et menneske mellem loyalitet over for systemet og loyalitet over for sine nærmeste.
