Book excerpt: In 1938 Graham Greene went to Mexico to investigate the aftermath of the brutal anti-clerical purges. Travelling through the tropical states of Chiapas and Tabasco, where all the churches had been closed or destroyed and the priests driven away or shot, he found an oppressed and impoverished people having to worship in secret. His experiences in Mexico provided the setting and theme for one of his greatest novels, "The Power and the Glory."
