Translation of Piers Paul Read: "I support the errors of Vatican II - such as the promotion of ecumenism and thus religious freedom - therefore I wish to enlist Graham Greene on my side and thus on the side of Vatican II, even though Vatican II would have nauseated Greene just like it did Evelyn Waugh."

According to the death of Graham Greene, this is from Wednesday 3rd April 1991

@transonicbuoy1

What does that mean, exactly?

[595o]

[Quex01]

WTF, no juicy fruit gum indians?

[masaudkhantv]

Graham Greene, Norman Mailer and James Hadley Chase are the best writers I have ever read...

[gmdinformation]

@masaudkhantv You don't get around the literary block much then.

When Nicolas Owen says tonight's headlines, was it the end of the news?

Burgess was a huge fan of Greene's. He was also incredibly well-read, spoke from the perspective of all history, and honestly. He wrote several praising obituaries, too. That brief clip seems unfair.....

Why would a British person become Catholic?

?????

[TheFactoryOfLight]

@dudemantwo As far as it is known, since the 19th century many Britons 'came out' as Catholics. Some converted too. Whatever the reason it may be, which I think no reason is required to choose a creed, there are plenty of great british Catholic writers, from Pope to Greene, Spark and Waugh to Tolkien or the very Burguess himself. I think that even Piers Paul Read is a Catholic. So what exactly is the point of your... remark?

[supriyavohra]

he was sent for psychoanalysis!?

[novelist88]

I read he wrote 500 words a day. no less, no more and put an X after the 500th word. Did he really count each one all the time?

[krane121]

That's in "The End of an Affair". Who knows how far it's characteristic of himself...

[godboxwagon]

one of the greatest authors that ever lived

[grobbledonk]

Alongside whom? Burgess doesn't express a very warm estimation of him.

[jordanschunk]

Fuck Burgess

[grobbledonk]

Fuck Greene, titface

[jordanschunk]

Look you driveling nancy boy...

I was more than a malenky bit gutted when I heard that arsehole Burgess say in his gloopy old voice "I hate to say this...he was not great, I think he was aware of that". He was just being a nadmenny baboochka.

[Phavonic]

@jordanschunk

right right

[CharlesDickens99]

@jordanschunk Burgess is just jealous
