Greene is one of the most widely read
novelist
of the 20th-century, a superb
storyteller,
and a first cousin of the author Robert
Louis Stevenson.. During his three
years
at Balliol College, he published more
than
sixty poems, stories, articles and
reviews,
most of which appeared in the student
magazine He worked for the Times
of
London (1926-30), and for the Spectator,
where he was a film critic and a literary
editor until 1940. Greene's first
published
book was BABBLING APRIL (1925), a
collection of poetry. During World
War II Greene worked "in a silly
useless job" as he later said in an
intelligence capacity for the
Foreign
Office in London, directly under Kim
Philby, a future defector to the Soviet
Union. Greene returned to England
in 1942. The English writer Evelyn
Waugh, who knew Greene well,
assured in a letter to his friend
that
the author 'is a secret agent on our
side and all his buttering up of the
Russians is "cover".' Greene's agent
novels were partly based on his own
experiences in the British foreign
office in the 1940s and his lifelong
ties
with SIS. Greene's uncle Sir William
Graham Greene helped to establish
the Naval Intelligence Department,
and his oldest brother, Herbert, served
as a spy for the Imperial Japanese
Navy in the 1930s. Graham's younger
sister, Elizabeth, joined MI6, and
recruited Graham into the regular
ranks of the service. Greene received
numerous honors from around the
world, and published two volumes
of
autobiography; A Sort of Life,
(1971) Ways of Escape (1980),
and the story of his friendship
with Panamanian dictator
General Omar Torrijos.
