The Lawless Roads by Graham Greene.
Graham Greene travels through Mexico in 1938, recording religious and political persecution from the perspective of a recent Catholic convert. Travel and belief become intertwined ways of approaching what he sees.
The book invites a discussion of the observer's commitments. How does belief sharpen attention, and where might it narrow an account of another country's experience?
