Have just read The End Of The Affair, it was my first Graham Greene. I love how he writes. I'm no literary expert but am finding i love some writers and cant be doing with thrashy stuff.
So which GG would you recommend i read next?

Studied The Power and The Glory for O level. Absolutely awful book. Loved Brighton Rock.
I fekt exactly the same abnout the End of the Affair - devoured it in a few days.

Have to disagree with previous posters. I absolutely loved The Power and The Glory - one of my favourite books ever. Brighton Rock is good too.

Wasnt getting a vibe from Brighton Rock....
Anyway, England Made Me came in the post today! (i tried my local bookshop, didnt have it in stock or their wholesaler, tried 2 second hand shops in town to no avail, the second one suggested abebooks.com which is an independent site, got it there)

Margaret Atwood's the Handmaid's Tale
My favourites are Our Man in Havanna & ...The Power & the Glory, for completely different reasons. The former was oddball & funny, the latter deep & really made me think about faith. Obviously a Marmite book. Libraries usually have a shelf full of GG's, that's how I first got into them!
