- Zusatztext
- Graham Greene''s Catholic Tetralogy: From Discontent To Protest tries to establish that Greene is not one more Catholic repeating the same tales. His being hounded by Catholic priests and his conversions and his repeated engagements with Catholic themes do not reveal him as a slavish Catholic but shows him as an unconscious Protestant'' like George Bernard Shaw''s Joan of Arc and his Lutheran Reformist zeal. Dr. V. Richard, a born Catholic, sharing the Greenean zeal, has a hard look at Greene''s popular Catholic fiction.
