Rezension zu „Stamboul Train “
"One of the most important British writers of the twentieth century - he brought something undeniably new to fiction" Daily Telegraph "He taught us to look at each other with new eyes. I don't suppose his influence will ever disappear" -- Auberon Waugh Independent "No serious writer of this century had more thoroughly invaded and shaped the public imagination than did Graham Greene" The Times "A tour de force... The realist and the romantic struggle with each other in this book, making it a kind of mental battlefield, inducing a sense of breathlessness and urgency" L. P. Hartley "Graham Greene had wit and grace and character and story and a transcendent universal compassion that places him for all time in the ranks of world literature" -- John Le Carre
