Both Graham Green and Francois Mauriac are often cited as "Catholic"
or "religious" authors, however they are not exactly in the vein
of C.S. Lewis.  Their treatments of the experience of faith
and moral predicament in the medium of the novel is outstanding.

Maurice Nicoll, an Englishman, has written commentaries on the
NT parables, which though not fiction are very thought-provoking.
