A superb storyteller
New York Times
Graham Greene taught us to understand the social and economic cripples in our midst. He taught us to look at each other with new eyes. I don't suppose his influence will ever disappear
Auberon Waugh, Independent
A masterly storyteller... An enormously popular writer who was also one of the most significant novelists of his time
Newsweek
One of our greatest authors... Greene had the sharpest eyes for trouble, the finest nose for human weaknesses, and was pitilessly honest in his observations... For experience of a whole century he was the man within
Norman Sherry, Independent
Mr Greens' extraordinary power of plot-making, of suspense and of narration...moves continuously both in time and space and in emotion
The Times
His style is spare, that's what is so beautiful. His novels are genuine romans philosophies - novels illustrating ideas
Piers Paul Read
In a class by himself...the ultimate chronicler of twentieth-century man’s consciousness and anxiety
William Golding
No serious writer of this century has more thoroughly invaded and shaped the public imagination than did Graham Greene
The Time
