Oh, hi there, so did I.
I never got around to reading Greene, despite the connection, and now I feel as though it might be an interesting exercise.
Certainly the biography in this piece makes me interested in him; I can see aspects of myself in him. Unrelated to the school, of course.
- dcminter 6y agoDefinitely worth a shot - you should find the early parts of "The Captain and The Enemy" strangely familiar. I do find the suffocating catholic guilt themes a bit depressing (read "The Ministry of Fear" or "Brighton Rock" for prime examples), but they're extraordinary nonetheless. (Edit) As you probably know, "Greenes" House and "The Greene Field" were named for his father.
