Description
Over a 60-year career, Graham Greene was a prolific writer. While his published works established him as one of the great writers of the twentieth century, much of his writing was never to see the light of day and has been gathered together in a number of archives across the UK, Ireland, USA and Canada
The second volume of The Works of Graham Greene is a comprehensive guide to the archives of Greene's writing. The book details archival holdings of unpublished novels, short stories, plays, film scripts, journals, poetry, fragments of writing, and letters, as well as manuscripts and typescripts of published works. Analysing and contextualising the unpublished work, the book is fully cross-referenced throughout and includes a substantial index as well as practical guidance for students, scholars and researchers on accessing and making the most of each of the archives.

Reviews / Votes
An invaluable guide to the nearly sixty worldwide repositories of archival material relating to Greene. The majority of the archives detailed are not widely known; they incorporate a fascinating array of documents including dream diaries, notebooks, business transactions, working manuscripts, and Greene's prolific correspondence with family, friends, and an array of public and literary figures including Edith Sitwell, Tom Stoppard, Kim Philby, and Ronald Harwood. * The Year's Work in English Studies *More details
