Our Man in Havana: An Entertainment

**Our Man in Havana: An Entertainment** - This deliciously absurd spy comedy follows Jim Wormold, a hapless vacuum cleaner salesman in 1950s Cuba who accidentally becomes Britain's most valued intelligence asset. When MI6 recruits him, Wormold starts fabricating reports and inventing agents to pay his daughter's school fees. Naturally, his fictional network becomes embarrassingly real, complete with actual assassins and genuine danger.

Graham Greene's satirical masterpiece skewers the intelligence establishment with razor-sharp wit, exploring themes of deception, bureaucratic incompetence, and moral ambiguity. Perfect for fans of spy fiction, dark comedy, or anyone who enjoys watching pompous institutions get thoroughly roasted. Greene, master of both serious literary works and entertainments like this gem, delivers a Cold War thriller that's more laughs than le Carré.

This preloved copy from Patina Paperbacks brings you classic British humor at its finest.

*"Absolutely hilarious - had me snorting with laughter on the train. Greene's best comedy by far."*

*"Brilliant satire that feels surprisingly relevant today. The bumbling bureaucrats are pitch-perfect."*
