Abstract - Postmodern elements foreshadow in Greene’s Catholic novels that serve his deliberate objective of showing the chaos, uncertainty, gross materialism, loss of identity, non-conformity of postmodern era to bring back the lost faith in the society. He believed that loss of religion could be restored through unfaith, and salvation is gained only through sin or damnation. Greene intended to restore the humanity lost in the labyrinths of social and religious constructs. He consecrates the profane to bring back the glory of the church and other social institutions. He even uses magic realism and uncertainty of postmodernism to invigorate Catholicism.

Key Words: 1.Gross-Materialism 2. Non-conformity 3. Chaos, 4. Mortal sin 5. Identity crisis, 6. Magic realism
