Our Man in Havana
Graham Greene’s classic Cuban spy story, now with a new package and a new introduction First published in 1959, Our Man in Havanais an espionage thriller, a penetrating character study, and a political satire that still resonates today. Conceived as one of Graham Greene’s “entertainments,” it tells of MI6’s man in Havana, Wormold, a former vacuum-cleaner salesman turned reluctant secret agent out of economic necessity. To keep his job, he files bogus reports based on Lamb’s Tales from Shakespeareand dreams up military installations from vacuum-cleaner designs. Then his stories start coming disturbingly true.
