His most famous works include The Power and the Glory, The Quiet American, Brighton Rock, and The Heart of the Matter.TLS. 1pg. September 3, 1984. Antibes, France. A typed letter signed Graham Greene to Mr. Cromwell discussing his Catholic faith and the Pope : Dear Mr Crowell, Thank you for your kind and interesting letter. I think that as long as one has a nostalgia for what one believes to be a lost faith the faith still exists and one has to be patient. Isnt that the meaning of the dark night? The present Pope I dont find very helpful to belief. I regret the death of John Paul I who was a friend of Hans Kung. Yours Sincerely Graham Greene. Greene is known for his Catholic novels exploring moral and religious themes. Greene is responding to Mr. Cromwells religious queries, explaining that a faith is not lost as long as a person continues to remember it. Greene expresses his dissatisfaction with the pope of that time, Pope John Paul II, because of his more conservative beliefs. Instead, he misses and admires Pope John Paul I, who was Pontiff for a month, and his progressive theology. This letter is in fine condition and is framed. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 6726
