5.0 out of 5 stars Not Just a good novelist, August 28, 2000

This review is from: Greene: Collected Essays (Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics) (Paperback)

Greene is a master of the short essay. He's a particularly good book reviewer, with tastes ranging from Rider Haggard to Henry James. He is, in fact, particularly fine on James, which is somewhat surprising, since at first glance they wouldn't seem to have much in common. They both, however, were deeply concerned with the craft of fiction, and it is that interest in craftmanship, more so than Greene's political or religious views, which dominates these essays.
