A review by drskaninchen
The Human Factor by Graham Greene
4.0
Maurice Castle is a member of the secret service during the cold war. He can best be destribed as the total opposite of James Bond. Maurice is to the roots of his hair a domestic house-husband. He wants nothing more than to be at home with his African wife Sarah and his adoptive son. Unfortunatly, Maurice is in very big trouble.
When I started the book, I found the tone of it to be cold and distant. After reading a few dozen pages, however, I had realised Graham Greene had done it again: he made me fall in love with his characters. While Graham Greene is known for his great plots, his real power as a writer the creation of great characters, who you can not but love and care for.
