Descripción:
London: Heinemann, 1930. A first edition, first printing published by Heinemann in 1930. Bound in the original blue cloth lettered in gilt on spine, publisher's device stamped in blind on lower board, FIRST ISSUE DUST-JACKET (priced 7/6), internally very clean indeed, dust-jacket a little worn at extremities and repaired with tape on verso at head of spine, some browning to spine and section of lower panel, collector's bookplate. Greene became deeply disenchanted with his second novel, and as such the book appears in no other editions or reprints than the present example and the first American edition. According to Wobbe, the author remarked that "the title... suggested to him by Clemence Dane, is the only part of the novel he approves of".

Descripción:
London: William Heinemann, 1930. First edition, in the first state dust jacket, of Graham Greene's elusive second novel. After the success of his 1929 debut The Man Within, Greene was given an unusually large advance to write The Name of Action, which introduces key elements of his later work: espionage, revolution, a doomed love story. In this case, a callow young Englishman's plot to overthrow the German dictator is complicated by his infatuation with the man's wife: "'Mr. Chant, of - of South-West London -- offering the post of mistress to the wife of the Dictator of Trier. Doesn't it strike you as amusing - as,' she added fiercely, 'impertinent?'" A critical and commercial disappointment, The Name of Action was a source of embarrassment to Greene, who suppressed further publication: "I was trying to write my first political novel, knowing nothing of politics." A near-fine copy of a scarce book, in a remarkably fresh jacket. Single volume, measuring 7.25 x 4.5 inches: [8], 344. Original navy blue…
