What is a Catholic novel? This book analyzes the fiction of Graham Greene in a radically new manner, considering in depth its form and content, which rest on the oppositions between secularism and religion.
Sampson challenges these distinctions, arguing that Greene has a dramatic contribution to add to their methodological premises.
Chapters on Greene's four Catholic novels and two of his post-Catholic novels are complemented by fresh insight into the critical importance of his nonfiction.
The study paints an image of an inviting yet beguilingly complex literary figure.
About author(s): Martyn Sampson earned his Ph.
from the University of the West of England, Bristol, where he taught English.
He served as Director of the 2018 and 2019 Graham Greene International Festivals.
