The Honorary Consul is set in the provincial city of Corrientes.It is a story of tragedy, love, and suspense. It has been considered by scholars one of Greene's finest novels.The story is set in the run up to Argentina's 'Dirty War' in the early 1970s. Greene explored the role that political and social struggles have within society. Greene uses conflict as a metaphor. Conflict becomes something that dictates everyday from relationships to actions. In the original publisher's cloth in the original unclipped dust wrapper. Externally very smart. Edge wear to the head of the dust wrapper. Minor age toning to the flyleaf. The boards are bright and clean. The odd spot to the text block. Internally firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. Fine
