Taking yourself on a Graham Greene tour of Ho Chi Minh City, you should begin in the Rue Catinat, now called Dong Khoi. Though the name has changed, the street is impossible to miss. Where it reaches the Saigon River, the street is prominently marked by Catinat Fashions, an upmarket haberdasher housed in a beautifully restored French Colonial building and finished in cream stucco to match the even more sumptuously restored Majestic Hotel across the street. Greene stayed at the Majestic, preferring it to the Continental, the more popular journalist hangout... on the Rue Catinat a few blocks inland.

In the late 80's, Graham Greene decided to move permanently to Switzerland, a country he had come to love, and he settled in Corseaux. Like so many authors before him, he found the calm and inspiration he needed to write his novels. Graham Greene passed away in 1991, leaving his many readers orphaned. The writer now lies in the town cemetery of Corseaux, a charming village overlooking Lake Geneva.

In the last years of his life, Greene lived in the small resort city of Vevey, on Lake Geneva in Switzerland. He had ceased attending Mass and going to Confession some time in the 1950s, but in his last years it seems he sometimes received the sacraments from a Spanish priest who became a friend, Fr. Leopaldo Duran. On his death at the age of 86 in 1991, he was interred in the nearby cemetery in Corsier-sur-Vevey.

His mind crowded with vivid images of Africa, Graham Greene set off in 1935 to discover Liberia, a remote and unfamiliar republic founded for released slaves. Now with a new introduction by Paul Theroux, "Journey Without Maps" is the spellbinding record of Greenes journey.
