Sobre este item
New York, New York, Usa: The Viking Press, 1959. 2nd Printing. Trade Paperback. Very Good. In Very Good Condition. A Few Dog Ears Towards Back End. No Notes, Names or Markings. Minor Wear/Tear To Edges and/or Turned Corners. - For More Information On Condition. Please See All Photos. Graham Greene's chilling exposé of violence and gang warfare in the pre-war underworld is a classic of its kind. Pinkie, the teenage gangster, is devoid of compassion or human feeling, despising weakness of the spirit or of the flesh. Responsible for the razor slashes that killed Kite and also for the death of Hale, he is the embodiment of calculated evil. As a Catholic, however, he is convinced that his retribution does not lie in human hands. He is therefore not prepared for Ida Arnold, Hale's avenging angel. Ida, whose allegiance is with life, the here and now, has her own ideas about the circumstances surrounding Hale's death. For the sheer joy of it she takes up the challenge of bringing the infernal Pinkie to an earthly kind of justice.
