By A Customer
This review is from: The Quiet American (Hardcover)
Graham Greene's masterpiece, the Quiet American provides and interesting perspective upon Vietnam during the decline of the French presence in Indochina. The characters are well presented and the plot in which they exist is dynamic and easily holds one's attention throughout the book's short length. The Quiet American is an exiting, tumultuous, and provocative look into the turmoil and chaos that was Vietam

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice book. Misleading listing., January 7, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Quiet American (Hardcover)
This book is a 1983 reprint, not a first edition, as the ad led me to believe. The Product Details say: "Publisher: Viking Press; 1st edition (June 1956)." Should have known the price was too good for a first edition, I suppose, but the seller should have listed the actual publication date of this edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real sensation, May 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Quiet American (Hardcover)
I do believe that this book gives us a quiet real idea of what it was like at this time.Beeing half french and half vietnamese and living in London might be helpful to enjoy this book but if you want to know more about "SEA" read it.
