Review: Our Man in Havana

Our Man in Havana Our Man in Havana by Graham Greene
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a wonderfully clever book by the oh so talented Graham Greene.
Our Man in Havana is as relevant today as it was when it was written, it tells the tale of a British ex-pat Vacuum cleaner salesman in Havana Cuba. Who is recruited rather unwillingly by the British secret service. As an unwilling spy he follows the guidance of a friend, who just happens to be a German ex-pat, and lies about his observations and covert operations a a Spy. This brings very unexpected results and results in some darkly humorous situations playing out.

It's a great tale and a fun read.

Highly recommended
