Power and Glory

About This Novel

Graham Greene divides his works into two categories: "serious novels" and "pleasure novels". "The Power and the Glory" is one of the most famous "serious novels" and one of Green's most highly praised by experts and readers. It is based on the two months the author spent in Mexico in March and April 1938. Five weeks of these two months were spent alone and exhausted traveling between Tabasco and Chiapas in the south for two weeks. Containing un-British Roman Catholic elements while being steeped in Manichean darkness and a faithful depiction of suffering, it can be called Green's most ambitious work.
