Shades of Greene one generation of an English family
"Graham Greene was one of the great writers of the last century, as well as enjoying a varied and adventurous career as a secret agent, traveller, publisher and man of letters: but he was not the only member of the Greene family to lead an extraordinary life. Of the twelve children born to brothers Charles and Edward Greene, eight recorded remarkable achievements - from a BBC Director General to an Everest mountaineer, from a female MI6 agent to a champion of Communist China, from a founder of a far-right political party to the inevitable black sheep - and in documenting the interlacing lives of this generation, Lewis provides both a fascinating exercise in group biography and a masterly account of English society in the twentieth century."--Back cover.
