Graham Greene's The Power and the Glory chronicles the desperate flight of this unnamed whisky priest, a man broken by his own sins yet unable to abandon his sacred duty, as a relentless police lieutenant closes in on him with the cold zeal of a true believer in a godless ideology.\n\nGreene constructs a profound moral paradox at the heart of this novel: can a deeply flawed, even corrupt man still be an instrument of grace? Written with spare, atmospheric prose and a psychological intensity that cuts to the bone, The Power and the Glory stands as one of the 20th century's most searching examinations of faith, guilt, and human frailty. Winner of the Hawthornden Prize and widely regarded as Greene's masterpiece, it challenges the reader to question where sanctity truly resides — and whether redemption can be earned by a man who has already lost everything.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49160994193627,"sku":"2026200013880-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/61710dae-5950-4f4a-86d2-e3175e73db60.png?v=1787188636","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013880-secondhand-the-power-and-the-glory","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
