Praise for Stamboul Train

A tour de force... The realist and the romantic struggle with each other in this book, making it a kind of mental battlefield, inducing a sense of breathlessness and urgency

L. P. Hartley

Graham Greene had wit and grace and character and story and a transcendent universal compassion that places him for all time in the ranks of world literature

John Le Carre

He taught us to look at each other with new eyes. I don't suppose his influence will ever disappear

Auberon Waugh, Independent

No serious writer of this century had more thoroughly invaded and shaped the public imagination than did Graham Greene

The Times

One of the most important British writers of the twentieth century - he brought something undeniably new to fiction
