About The End of the Affair

In a sense, 'The End of the Affair' is a theological work thinly disguised as a morose love story. It's a deeply moving narrative that delves into the complexities of human emotion set against the backdrop of World War II. Greene's prose is intricate and the story is a reflection on faith, love, and the painful search for meaning in a seemingly indifferent world.
