Viac o knihe

'The ultimate chronicler of twentieth-century man's consciousness and anxiety' William Golding, Independent People are wary of Scobie, disturbed by his scrupulous honesty. A police officer serving in a war-torn West African state, he is immune to bribery. But when he falls in love, Scobie is forced into a betrayal of everything that he has ever believed in, with shattering results. Greene's anguished story of personal and spiritual confusion was made into a film, with Trevor Howard in perhaps his finest performance, playing the tormented Scobie. 'A superb storyteller with a gift for provoking controversy' The New York Times
