IN SEARCH OF A CHARACTER contains two African notebooks: 'Congo Journal', which records Greene's travels in 1959, and his stay at the Yonda leper colony in the jungle which inspired the story for A Burnt-Out Case. 'Convoy to West Africa' describes Greene's voyage in a cargo boat during the Second World War, from Liverpool to Freetown, Sierra Leone, the setting for 'The Heart Of The Matter'.
