Write-Up Appertaining To Books The Honorary Consul

Description: In a provincial Argentinean town, Charley Fortnum, a British consul with dubious authority and a weakness for drink, is kidnapped by Paraguayan revolutionaries who have mistaken him for the American ambassador. Dr. Eduardo Plarr, a local physician with his own divided loyalties, serves as the negotiator between the rebels and the authorities. These fumbling characters play out an absurd drama of failure, hope, love, and betrayal against a backdrop of political chaos. The Honorary

I haven't read any other of Graham Green's work. It is funny that I should have started with this, which is referred to as one his later works. I had mixed feelings from the start. For one, I was excited about reading Green. And, I was drawn back by my own limited understanding of his style, though delicate and touching. Enter Plarr, aged and a doctor of patients he f***s. And the rest of the bunch who orchestrate a kidnapping. Need not be said they know nothing about professional kidnapping.

The justification of man's actions based on faith or based on the conflict created by the expectations of religious instruction and the reality of life features heavily in



I make a point of never reading reviews before I read the book but when I went on Goodreads to record the fact that I was about to start the novel I must have somehow absorbed a word or two of the description. I distinctly remembered the word 'thriller'. Who had put it there I will never know, but it unfortunately came to colour my judgement. Without this word, with a different expectation, I might have liked the book better.You see, I had a reason for wanting a thriller. I was to open the book

Good book by Greene. I could easily see this being made into a stage play. We deal with the mistaken kidnapping of an Honorary Consul, when the real target is the US Ambassador. Kidnappers want to exchange him for 10 of their kind held in Paraguayan prison. Interesting day by day timeline with lot of religious theology and backstories about the characters. I did not feel a lot of connection with the characters, as it appears that they exist only to espouse certain philosophical views. But it is
