Graham Greene did not consider himself to be a short story writer of any great ability but anyone who has had the pleasure of reading this collection of nineteen excellent pieces of writing would surely beg to differ ! Eight of these stories have appeared before in a very early Graham Greene title called 'The Basement Room' but the remaining eleven appear here in book form for the first time. Overall signs of wear and handling but a very decent copy nontheless. A feast of stories from one of the worlds most gifted writers showing his great talent and versatility !
