I really like Graham Greene. This is another fine novel. A famous person gets burnt out on life, love, religion. He hops on a boat to the furthest reaches of Africa and hides out in a leper colony with a bunch of priests. He didn't hide well enough. The world finds him and problems ensue.
Sad ending. I wouldn't say predictable, but more like inevitable. I liked the book. The dialogue was terrific. Our main man gets into some wonderful conversation on life, love and religion.
If you like Greene, you will love it.
