LOVING GRAHAM GREENE
By Gloria Emerson
Random House, 176 pages, $22.95
I had admired Gloria Emerson’s “Winners and Losers,” her 1978 National Book Award-winninglook at the Vietnam War and the American people, but never expected to be so utterly entranced by this novel. Emerson’s portrait of a politically active Princeton, N.J., heiress obsessed with writer Graham Greene is clever and insightful. What makes this book so wonderful is what it says about the frustrations, and rewards, of America’s engagement with the world.
