Come and hear about Graham Greene’s depiction of an idealistic young American in Vietnam, spreading ‘democracy’ with its consequent death and chaos. This is a great novel by a masterful journalist who foresaw the Vietnamese carnage and in light of current world affairs an interesting time to consider it!
