Arriving anonymously at a leper colony in the Congo, he is diagnosed as the mental equivalent of a 'burnt-out case', a leper mutilated by disease and amputation. Querry slowly moves towards a cure, his mind getting clearer as he works for the colony. However, in the heat of the tropics, no relationship with a married woman, however blameless, will ever be taken as innocent.<br /><br />The story reflects many of Greene's own personal struggles with his celebrity as a famous 'Catholic' author and his own doubts about his faith.<br /><br />Do you enjoy the variety on Oldtuberadio?<br />Like, Share and Subscribe to be notified of our new shows<br />#radio #crime #thriller #drama<br />To Support this channel please visit<br />https://www.buymeacoffee.com/oldtuberadio<br />https://ko-fi.com/oldtuberadio98<br />https://www.patreon.com/oldtuberadio<br />https://locals.com/Oldtuberadio
