Graham Greene remarked that 'politics are in the air we breathe,
like the presence or absence of a God' (The Other Man). This study
is the first to provide a detailed consideration of the impact of
his political thought and involvements on his writings both
fictional and factual. It also offers the first detailed
consideration of Greene's involvements in espionage and British
intelligence from the 1920s until the late-1980s. It incorporates
material not only from his major fictions but also from his
prolific journalism, letters to the press, private correspondence,
diaries and working manuscripts and typescripts, as well as
consideration of the diverse political involvements and writings of
his extended family network. It shows how the full range of
Greene's writings was inspired and underpinned by his fascination
with the essential human duality of political action and religious
belief, coupled with an insistent need as a writer to keep the
political personal.
