The Honorary Consul

œThe Honorary Consul” is yet another great work from one of the twentieth century’™s greatest authors. Graham Greene`s gripping tragicomedy of a bungled kidnapping in a provincial Argentinian town is considered one of his finest.The novel tells of Charley Fortnum, the `Honorary Consul`, a whisky-sodden figure of dubious authority taken by a group of revolutionaries. As Eduardo Plarr, a local doctor, negotiates with revolutionaries and authorities for Fortnum`s release, the corruption of both becomes evident. In this spare, tense novel, Graham Greene explores the morality of a political system that turns priests into killers.A blood brother to ‘œOur Man in Havana”, this is yet another cracking read from a real master.
