Upplýsingar um vöru
- Maurice Castle is a high-level operative in the British secret service during the Cold War. He is deeply in love with his African wife, who escaped apartheid South Africa with the help of his communist friend. Despite his misgivings, Castle decides to act as a double agent, passing information to the Soviets to help his in-laws in South Africa. In order to evade detection, he allows his assistant to be wrongly identified as the source of the leaks. But when suspicions remain, Castle is forced to make an even more excruciating sacrifice to save himself. Originally published in 1978, The Human Factor is an exciting novel of espionage drawn from Greene’s own experiences in MI6 during World War II, and ultimately a deeply humanistic examination of the very nature of loyalty. This edition features a new introduction by Colm Tóibín.For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.

Espionage Editorial Review
The Human Factor by Graham Greene is a beautifully written book that explores the moral dilemmas of an intelligence officer. The author's depiction of uncertainty and hesitation in identifying with any side is portrayed with honesty, making it one of his very best works. The novel is well worth a re-read and is highly recommended for fans of Graham Greene's other works.
