What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
Discover Graham Greene’s blackly comic and timely espionage thriller, set amid the vice and squalor of pre-revolutionary Havana.
'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 Carré
Wormold is a vacuum cleaner salesman in a city of power cuts. His adolescent daughter spends his money with a skill that amazes him, so when a mysterious Englishman offers him an extra income he's tempted. In return all he has to do is carry out a little espionage and file a few reports. But when his fake reports start coming true, things suddenly get more complicated and Havana becomes a threatening place.

Critics Review
As comical, satirical, atmospherical an “entertainment” as he has given us
He had a sharp nose for trouble and injustice. In Our Man In Havana – a witty send-up of an agent’s life – it was Cuba before Castro
Nobody should be anywhere near power who hasn’t read (or seen the film of) Our Man in Havana, a powerful satire on the silly world of spying by a man who had experienced it
Graham Greene captured a pre-Castro Cuba of daiquiris and decadence… hilarious
British Intelligence being sent up something rotten
