*Not to be confused with other literary Greens: British Novelists Henry Green and F. L. Green. *No kin to Author Elizabeth Bowen, good friend and brilliant colleague of Graham Greene's. Marjorie Bowen's real name: Margaret Gabrielle Long. * The volume is now a rare collector's item, and Graham Greene wishes it were even rarer. Sample: . . . Your eyes can bring me no such lovely joy As sudden sparks of beauty in a verse . . . And yet, your hair dusks with its strands the page, Until I'd leave the book to kiss your hair. Yet even now I'm sure that two years hence I'd curse the bitter bargain of a fool. And leave the shallowness of well-known eyes. *A Manhattan ship news reporter (so the story goes) put the heart of the matter to Waugh: "Mr. Waugh, where's Scobie?" Said Waugh: "In hell, of course."
