'From the beginning Greene was fascinated by the thriller, which has at its heart deceit, an idea or an ideal betrayed, emotion hidden behind a mask.'
The Guardian

Literary master Graham Greene's debut, a taste of greatness to come ...

The Man Within tells the story of Andrews, a young man who has betrayed his fellow smugglers and fears their vengeance. Fleeing from them, with no hope of pity or salvation, he takes refuge in the house of a young woman, also alone in the world. She persuades him to give evidence against his accomplices in court, but neither she nor Andrews is aware that to both criminals and authority, treachery is as great a crime as smuggling. The first step in a brilliant career, The Man Within offers a foretaste of Green’s recurring themes of religion, the individual’s struggles against cynicism and the indifferent forces of a hostile world.

'One of our greatest authors ... For experience of a whole century he was the man within.'
The Independent

'Full of treasures for Greene enthusiasts: a complex web of betrayal and deceit and a tormented central character.'
The Observer
