A morally complex and mature work from a modern master
IN THIS later novel by Graham Greene— featuring a new introduction—the author continues to explore moral and theological dilemmas through psychologically astute character studies and exciting drama on an international stage. In The Honorary Consul, a British consul with a fondness for drink is mistaken for an American ambassador and kidnapped by Paraguayan revolutionaries.

Describes excellently the backwater feeling of an unimpotrant Argentinian town (Posadas) with links to Paraguay during the dictatorship of Alfredo Stroessner (although nothing is called by it real name). Greene excelles again in his distinct and detached anglo-saxon sense of humour.
