I laughed out loud so many times reading this book.

It is sublime and it is subversive, and the dialogue between Aunt Augusta and Henry actually reminds me of some conversations I have had with my great-uncle, whose stories have influenced me in a similar way that Henry has been affected by his Aunt – except, of course, that neither of has been involved in smuggling, founding religious groups, or “the stage”... well, at least not that I know of. I should give him a ring again soon.

Having read [b:The Heart of the Matter|3692|The Heart of the Matter|Graham Greene|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1385263150s/3692.jpg|3266950] and [b:The End of the Affair|29641|The End of the Affair|Graham Greene|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1328010344s/29641.jpg|267229], I am glad though that this is not the first of Greene’s novels I turned to, as Travels With My Aunt seems to be quite different.
