    Extractions: by Anthony Palliser by JOSEPH PEARCE Graham Greene is perhaps the most perplexing of all the literary converts whose works animated the Catholic literary revival in the 20th century. His visions of angst and guilt, informed and sometimes deformed by a deeply felt religious sensibility, make his novels, and the characters that adorn them, both fascinating and unforgettable. His fiction is gripping because it grapples with faith and disillusionment on the shifting sands of uncertainty in a relativistic age. His tormented characters are the products of Greene's own tortured soul, and one suspects that he was more baffled than anyone else at the contradictions at the core of his own character and, in consequence, at the heart of the characters that his fertile and fetid imagination had created. From his earliest childhood Greene exhibited a world-weariness that at times reached the brink of despair. In large part this bleak approach may have been due to a wretched childhood and to the traumatic time spent at Berkhhamsted School where his father was headmaster. His writing is full of the bitter scars of his school days. In his autobiographical

G > Greene, Graham E-MAIL Save Camera Press/RETNA Graham Greene 1904-1991 Among Graham Greene's 24 novels, many of which were adapted into films, were "The Power and the Glory," "The Heart of the Matter," "The Third Man," "The Quiet American," "Our Man in Havana," "The Comedians," "The Honorary Consul" and "The Human Factor." His plays included "The Living Room," "The Potting Shed" and "The Complaisant Lover," and he wrote dozens of short stories. His work was translated into 27 languages and sold more than 20 million copies in hard-cover and paperback editions. He also wrote travel books, essays and children's stories, and two autobiographies, "A Sort of Life" and "Ways of Escape." An occasional contributor to newspapers and magazines, he even found time to write strong letters to the editor on political and literary matters. That Mr. Greene never received the Nobel Prize in Literature was a source of regret and astonishment to many readers and publishing professionals.

46. English Literature. Graham Greene's Novel Brighton Rock; The Characterisation Of
    graham greene s novel Brighton Rock, a study of the characterisation of Good and Evil.  
    http://www.literature-study-online.com/essays/graham-greene.html
    
    Extractions: The Characterisation of Good and Evil by Sarah Jones Bookshop English Literature Graham Greene Catholic fiction ... GCSE Books She . . . was about to mutter her quick 'Our Father' and 'Hail Marys' while she dressed, when she remembered . . . What was the good of praying now? . . . she had chosen her side: if they damned him they'd got to damn her, too 'Hale knew, before he had been in Brighton three hours, that they meant to murder him'. This powerful and sinister sentence is the opening line of Brighton Rock and the start of a gripping thriller. Part One of the novel, despite Greene's later concerns that it should have been removed, sets the scene and introduces the two main protagonists, Ida and Pinkie (initially referred to as 'the boy' - it is not until Chapter Two that he takes on the role of main character and becomes 'the Boy'). However, from Part Two onwards, it is quickly apparent that the novel is not just a murder mystery but also addresses metaphysical issues of Good versus Evil and the influence of the Roman Catholic Church. The two opposing characters in the 'Good versus Evil' struggle are Pinkie and Ida. It is interesting and ironic that the evil Pinkie is the 'Roman'. He nurtures vice, although he realises, after his first taste of alcohol that 'You could lose vice as easily as you could lose virtue', and chooses Hell over Heaven: 'Heaven was a word: hell was something he could trust'.

Although Greene objected strongly to being described as a mere "Catholic novelist", his religion informs most of his novels, and many of his best works (e.g. Brighton Rock The Heart of the Matter and The Power and the Glory ) are explicitly Roman Catholic in content and preoccupations. Greene was born in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, the fourth of six children- his younger brother Hugh was later to become the Director-General of the BBC, and older brother Raymond was an eminent doctor and mountaineer. Their parents, Charles Henry Greene and Marion nee Raymond, were first cousins and members of a large and influential family which included the owners of the Greene King brewery, and various bankers and businessmen. Charles Greene was "second master" at Berkhamsted School, where the headmaster was Dr Thomas Fry (who was married to another cousin of Charles).

    Extractions: The Vatican put pressure on the Catholic author Graham Greene to change one of his most successful novels, The Power and the Glory, according to letters published this week in the US. The letters reveal that Pope Paul VI himself later told the author not to pay any attention. Graham Greene, a convert to Catholicism, died in 1991. An American Jesuit researcher has discovered correspondence relating to attempts by the Vatican to muzzle Graham Greene in 1953. The Holy Office, formerly the Inquisition, wrote to the then Archbishop of Westminster to tell Greene - 14 years after publication of the novel - that they had passed an adverse verdict on the book. Whiskey-addled priest The book's subject was a whiskey-addled priest from Mexico. While the author's intention had been to bring out victory in spite of man's wretchedness, the Vatican said, this aim had not been achieved. They accused Greene of injuring the Catholic priesthood.

    Extractions: May 23, 2007 Graham Greene stars as Shylock in this summer's Stratford Festival production of The Merchant of Venice. (David Hou/Stratford Festival of Canada) Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice Stratford Festival’s new production, opening June 1 — sees his character as a victim, not a villain. “Shylock, he’s the one who gets boned, big time,” says a gruffly affable Greene, who is a master of the pithy summary. “He loses everything — his daughter, his money, his house. He’s completely reduced to nothing and forced to convert to Christianity on top of it.” The Venetian Christians, meanwhile, who preach to Shylock about mercy and forgiveness when he insists on his pound of flesh for an unpaid loan, wind up with his riches. “Even [Shylock’s] rotten son-in-law Lorenzo doesn’t care about his wife anymore when he finds out he gets the inheritance from Shylock,” says Greene, suddenly erupting into one of his huge, cackling laughs. “They’re an ugly bunch of characters — brutal. This play makes Christians look like complete animals. It just cracks me up.” Greene, 55, is sitting for this late-morning interview backstage at the Festival Theatre, where, apart from some sniffles due to spring allergies, he’s appearing fit and relaxed. He’s clad in a chill-out ensemble of sweatpants, T-shirt and black leather vest, but this evening he’ll don a grey businessman’s suit for his role in director

    Extractions: NI_AD('Sponsorprint'); NI_AD('Sponsorsendfriend'); NI_AD('Sponsorbacktotop'); Have Your Say It is difficult to like Graham Greene and his books, almost as difficult as it is to leave any of his books unread once started. The reviewer seems to be of the same oppinion, as one cannot say whether he likes or dislikes Greene or his writings; but he must have studied him well, or he could not have wrtten this review. What makes us read an author? It is hardly because we find a kindred spirit, or to get our mind stimulated. What it is, I cannot say, but there must be something in good writing that attracts even when we are unable to say why. Reidulf K. Molvaer, Oslo, Norway

You see, this is not just any hotel poolit's the one in which Doctor Philipot was found dead in Graham Greene's novel, The Comedians Wait a minute, I remind myself: That's fantasy, not reality. But the two worlds seem to intersect at the Hotel Oloffson (Greene called it the Trianon) in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. "With its towers and balconies and wooden fretwork decorations it had the air of a Charles Addams house in a number of The New Yorker ," Greene wrote. "You expected a witch to open the door to you or a maniac butler, with a bat dangling from the chandelier behind him."

    http://www.lycos.com/info/graham-greene.html
    
    Extractions: With his centenary coming up in October, Graham Greene has been in the news lately. In an article for The Guardian, Zadie Smith writes, "Where lesser novelists deploy broad strokes to separate good guy from bad, Greene was the master of the multiple distinction: the thin lines that separate evil from cruelty from unkindness from malevolent stupidity. His people exist within a meticulously calibrated moral system. They fail by degrees. And so there is no real way to be good in Greene, there are simply a million ways to be more or less bad." The essay, posted by The Guardian... serves as the introduction to a new centenary edition of "The Quiet American by Graham Greene." Source: classiclit.about.com Graham Greene’s ‘‘The Destructors’’ was first published in two parts in Picture Post on July 24 and 31, 1954. Later that year, the story appeared in a collection entitled Twenty-One Stories. Because Greene arranged the stories in reverse chronological order, ‘‘The Destructors’’ was the first story in the collection. Source: enotes.com
