'No serious writer of this century has more thoroughly invaded and shaped the public imagination than did Graham Greene' Time
Klappentext:
Discover Graham Greene's blackly comic and timely espionage thriller, set amid the vice and squalor of pre-revolutionary Havana.
'British Intelligence being sent up something rotten' Daily Telegraph
Wormold is a vacuum cleaner salesman in a city of power cuts. His adolescent daughter spends his money with a skill that amazes him, so when a mysterious Englishman offers him an extra income he's tempted. In return all he has to do is carry out a little espionage and file a few reports. But when his fake reports start coming true, things suddenly get more complicated and Havana becomes a threatening place.
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS
