emotional informative reflective slow-paced

3.25

An approach to the biography that is appreciated, allowing the reader to see the heights of Greene's humor and compassion, as well as the depths of his depression. His honesty can be refreshing at times, at other times uncomfortable. After a while, though, reading this feels less like a biography and more like obsessively poring through somebody's mail.

A fascinating insight into the man behind the words. Surprising how many famous people he knew. The Philby letters are without a doubt the most interesting.
