Our Man in Havana by Graham GreeneMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
A quaint yet hilarious tale of a wannabe ‘spy’ during the Cold War. His bumbling efforts at espionage evoke the castles in the air built by James Thurber’s Walter Mitty. The venal machinations of the Secret Service apparently inspired George Smiley's organization described by Le Carre, John.
