Our Man in Havana

Graham Greene's blackly comic espionage thriller, set amid the vice and squalor of pre-revolutionary Havana. Life in pre-revolutionary Cuba is not easy and James Wormold, a failing vacuum cleaner salesman, is struggling to fund the increasingly lavish lifestyle of his manipulative sixteen year-old daughter, Milly. So when an enigmatic Englishman offers him an extra income in return for a little spying, he is sorely tempted... But when the fake reports he's been sending to London start to come true, Havana suddenly becomes a very dangerous place indeed.

Both a brilliant Cold War thriller and hilarious work of satire, Greene's classic tale of an accidental spy is a truly gripping read.
