- This monograph provides the first comprehensive assessment of the impact of Greene’s political and intelligence involvements on the scope and subject matter of his writings, including novels, short stories, journalism, essays and correspondence. It makes extensive use of previously unpublished archive materials at the National Archives, London; Harry Ransom Center, Texas; Brotherton Library, Leeds; and Greene family papers held in libraries and privately owned. It synthesises biographical, political and literary perspectives to provide detailed contextual and historical readings of Greene’s works and underlines the impact of his covert involvements from the late-1920s until the 1980s in British SIS (MI6) activities.
