Graham
Greene s career as a writer spanned sixty years, and he
remains one of the most widely-read novelists of the twentieth
century. However, Greene s remarkable life has in recent years led
to a dominance of heavily biographical approaches to his work.
A Study in Greene marks a return to the literary and intellectual
contexts of his writings.
In this critical study Bernard Bergonzi makes a close examination
of the language and structure of Greene s novels, and traces the
obsessive motifs that recur throughout his work. Most earlier criticism
was written while Greene was still working, and was to some extent
provisional, as the final shape of his
oeuvre
was not yet apparent. In
this book Bergonzi is able to take a view of Greene s whole career
and argues that the earlier work—combining melodrama, realism,
and poetry—was Greene s best, with Brighton Rock, a moral fable that
draws on crime fiction and Jacobean tragedy, as his masterpiece. The
novels published after the
1950s
were very professional examples of
skilful story-telling but represented a decline from this high level of
achievement. Bergonzi also challenges assumptions about the nature
of Greene s debt to cinema, and attempts to clarify the complexities
and contradictions of his religious ideas. Accessible and stimulating, this
timely study will be of interest to all those who enjoy Greene s novels
