Graham Greene El Americano Impasible The Quiet American (Spanish Text)
Narrativa Actual 8447300226 / 9788447300228 Hardcover Very Good
8447300226 Editorial Reviews nProduct Description nSet in Vietnam in the 1950s, during the last days of French colonial rule, THE QUIET AMERICAN was based partly on Graham Greene's own experiences in Vietnam as a correspondent for the London Times. The book's narrator is an English journalist named Fowler who lives in Saigon with his Vietnamese mistress, Phuong, but is unable to convince his Catholic wife to grant him a divorce. Fowler meets Pyle, a young American intelligence agent who talks of setting up a third force to oppose both the colonial powers and the Communist rebels. Fowler's growing conviction that Pyle is orchestrating a campaign of terror coincides with the discovery that Phuong has betrayed him with Pyle. When THE QUIET AMERICAN was published in the US in 1956, its implication that Americans were involved in terrorism against the Vietnamese was met with outrage. As years have passed, however, the book has come to be seen as a prescient and probing look at a volatile situation that paved the way for America's tragic involvement in the Vietnam War.
