Our Man In Havana - Graham Greene, Christopher Hitchens The tone felt strangely light as I just read Naipaul's "In a Free State", but I liked "Our Man..." a lot. It reminded me of "Crying of Lot 49" in some ways (though it's been like 15 years since I read that). The tone is comic-absurd-mysterious in a similar way. A quick fun read.
