About the book

Graham Greene's The Quiet American is set in French colonial Vietnam during the early 1950s and centres on British journalist Thomas Fowler and idealistic American Alden Pyle. Their personal rivalry over the young Vietnamese woman Phuong becomes intertwined with political violence and American involvement in the region. Greene explores idealism, responsibility and the dangerous consequences of interfering in cultures one does not fully understand.
