{"product_id":"9781349243655","title":"Graham Greene's Conradian Masterplot: The Arabesques of Influence","description":"From The Man Within (1929) to The Captain and the Enemy (1988), Graham Greene engaged in a lifelong dialogue with Joseph Conrad's political, psychological and melodramatic fictions. Repressing Conrad's political anxieties, his early work displaces the protagonist's existential dilemma into the form of the thriller or - alternatively -the 'Catholic' novel. After The Quiet American (1955), however, Greene's novels return to politics, introducing comic variations which transform Conrad's 'masterplot' into a mixed genre uniquely his own, a process charted in this book, the first full-length study of the subject.","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47046409191664,"sku":"9781349243655","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781349243655_p0.jpg?v=1763710050","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781349243655","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
