Description
Graham Greene's classic exploration of love, innocence, and morality in Vietnam.
“This is the patent age of new inventions
For killing bodies, and for saving souls,
All propagated with the best intentions.”
As young Pyle's well-intentioned policies blunder into bloodshed, Fowler, a seasoned and cynical British reporter, finds it impossible to stand safely aside as an observer. But Fowler's motives for intervening are suspect, both to the police and himself, for Pyle has stolen Fowler's beautiful Vietnamese mistress.
