Qui perd gagne

The novel delves into characters making morally complex choices. I'm curious whether Greene intended to challenge readers’ perceptions of right and wrong.

The conclusion felt bittersweet and a bit open-ended, which made me wonder if Greene wanted to evoke a sense of life's unpredictability or moral ambiguity.

Greene’s experiences during wartime and his background in journalism seem to shape his nuanced view of human nature. What aspects do others see reflected in this novel?
