The first volume of the Collected Works of the greatest English writer Graham Greene (1904–1991) includes three novels: “England Made Me” (1935), “Brighton Lollipop” (1938) and “The Confidant” (1939). The novel “Brighton” lollipop" was published by the Heinemann publishing house in 1938. Green considered it one of his best books, although according to the writer’s recollections, at first it was not a great success and the fee for it barely covered the debt to the publishing house. In the novel, the author sets out the idea that is dear to him about the moral and religious value of purely human love, even if the latter came into conflict with the orthodox idea of the love of God.
