About the book

Graham Greene's Complete Entertainments brings together six of his suspenseful works: Stamboul Train, A Gun for Sale, The Confidential Agent, The Ministry of Fear, The Third Man and The Fallen Idol, and Our Man in Havana. Greene used the term 'entertainments' for fiction that emphasised intrigue, espionage, danger and fast-moving plots while still engaging with the moral and political tensions that run throughout his writing. Across these stories, travellers, agents, criminals and ordinary people are drawn into situations shaped by betrayal, secrecy, fear and divided loyalties. The collection shows Greene combining the pace of the thriller with psychological conflict and questions of conscience, giving a broad view of the more suspense-driven side of his fiction.
