Travels with my aunt – graham greene. Never read any Graham Greene before so a big thanks out to Chris (the littler one) for recommending this to me from his huge pile of books. The story revolves around a retired bank manager who meets his aunt for the first time at his reserved, religious mother’s funeral. This meeting leads to a number of revelations about his family history and consequently to his travels with his aunt to various locations, never quite knowing what’s going on. It’s a highly readable book that pulls you along from page to page, and although the transition from fuddy duddy bank manager to international ‘criminal’ is maybe a bit far fetched at times it makes for a great story. Green tackles the uncertainty in the nephew’s mind about his new adventures wonderfully and it’s a great book to read if you’re not sure you want to go travelling…
