Brighton Rock is a taut, atmospheric crime thriller that pits the secular nihilism of a killer against the profound questions of sin, guilt, and Catholic redemption, set against the gaudy, unsettling backdrop of an English seaside resort.\n\nGraham Greene's masterwork is a landmark of 20th-century British literature, celebrated for its unflinching psychological depth and its penetrating examination of good and evil, free will, and damnation. Greene's prose is precise and deeply evocative, imbuing even the most mundane details with a brooding menace that never relents. This Heron Books edition, with original illustrations by Barry Wilkinson and a frontispiece portrait by Sheilagh Noble, presents a visually distinctive version of a novel that continues to haunt readers long after the final, devastating page.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130920116443,"sku":"2026200012155-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/2b3828e8-78e7-47d2-ac27-cec9a35a7a8f.png?v=1786592066","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200012155-secondhand-brighton-rock","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
