Description: To Graham Greene, ‘Africa will always be the Africa of the Victorian atlas, the blank unexplored continent the shape of the human heart.’ IN SEARCH OF A CHARACTER contains two African notebooks- Congo Journal, which records Graham Greene’s travels in 1959, and his stay at the Yonda leper colony in the jungle which inspired the story for A Burnt-Out Case. Convoy to West Africa describes Greene’s voyage in a cargo boat during the Second World War, from Liverpool to Freetown, Sierra Leone, the setting for THE HEART OF THE MATTER.
