{"product_id":"the-quiet-american-1","title":"The Quiet American","description":"While the French Army in Indo-China is grappling with the Vietminh, back in Saigon a young and high-minded American named Pyle begins to channel economic aid to a \"Third Force.\"\n\nCaught between French colonialists and the Vietminh, Fowler, the narrator and seasoned foreign correspondent, observes: \"I never knew a man who had better motives for all the trouble he caused.\" As young Pyle's policies blunder on into bloodshed, the older man finds it impossible to stand aside as an observer. But Fowler's motives for intervening are suspect, both to the police and to himself: for Pyle has robbed him of his Vietnamese mistress.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0142001384\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0142001384.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Greene, Graham\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
