Description

Graham Greene, known for his iconic novels, also wrote extraordinary short stories. Here some of the best have been arranged into pairs to be read as a duel or duet by novelist and Greene aficionado, Yiyun Li. Twentytwo of Greenes very best stories are collected here, each of them bearing the hallmark themes that characterise his great novels innocence and vengeance, love and hate, pity and violence. Writer and Greene aficionado, Yiyun Li, has arranged the stories into pairs, to be read together in contrast or in harmony as a duel or a duet. In doing so Li draws out the extraordinary power in Greenes work, creating an ingenious new perspective on a writer we thought we knew. Unexpected, surprising and wideranging, this is the short fiction of one of the twentieth centurys greatest and most adored storytellers, revealing his brilliance as never before. No twentiethcentury writer had a subtler mind for human comparison Zadie SmithGreene 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 CarrOne of the most important British writers of the twentieth century Daily TelegraphA superb storyteller New York TimesOne of the finest writers of any language Washington PostOne of our greatest authors IndependentSELECTED AND INTRODUCED BY YIYUN LI
