About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Discover Graham Greene’s blackly comic and timely espionage thriller, set amid the vice and squalor of pre-revolutionary Havana.

'Graham Greene had wit and grace and character and story and a transcendent universal compassion that places him for all time in the ranks of world literature' John Le Carré

Wormold is a vacuum cleaner salesman in a city of power cuts. His adolescent daughter spends his money with a skill that amazes him, so when a mysterious Englishman offers him an extra income he's tempted. In return all he has to do is carry out a little espionage and file a few reports. But when his fake reports start coming true, things suddenly get more complicated and Havana becomes a threatening place.

Critic Reviews

As comical, satirical, atmospherical an "entertainment" as he has given us
He had a sharp nose for trouble and injustice. In Our Man In Havana - a witty send-up of an agent's life - it was Cuba before Castro
Nobody should be anywhere near power who hasn't read (or seen the film of) Our Man in Havana, a powerful satire on the silly world of spying by a man who had experienced it
Graham Greene captured a pre-Castro Cuba of daiquiris and decadence... hilarious
British Intelligence being sent up something rotten
The human story is warm and the satire made me laugh out loud (Simon Shepherd)
All stars
Most relevant
the story is great, but what's with 30 seconds of rubbish music at the start and end of each chapter?
