More Information
Graham Greene was born in 1904 the son of a headmaster. He went
to Oxford University before pursuing a career in journalism and serving in the
Foreign Office during the war. Several of his early novels were adapted for film
with mixed results, indeed Greene himself seems to have taken against them.
Brighton Rock is regarded by most, though not the author, as his most
important work and propelled him to the forefront of British authors. He is one
of the most collectable literary authors with his early books being much
sought after, later titles in jacket are not considered rare, though collecting
the early firsts is a matter of great patience and expense.
