The Comedians

Short Review: I know that Greene is one of the most well regarded novelists from the 20th century. And I loved the End of the Affair. But this was not a book that I loved. It ended well (the last 100 pages or so were the most engaging) which is often hard for novelists. And it is easy to see Greene's skill. He can write. And tweaking a repressive dictator that was still in office did take guts. (This was not historical fiction but written as a contemporary novel within a couple years of the setting and published 5 years before Papa Doc died.)

But it does make me want to read more Greene. My full review is on my blog at http://bookwi.se/comedians-graham-greene/
