Our Game: The Penguin John le Carré Hardback Collection

Autor John le Carré
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 iul 2020
Le Carré's post-Cold War masterpiece, filled with suspense, betrayal, desire and drama

The Cold War is over and retired secret servant Tim Cranmer has been put out to pasture, spending his days making wine on his Somerset estate. But then he discovers that his former double agent Larry ­- dreamer, dissolute, philanderer and disloyal friend - has vanished, along with Tim's mistress. As their trail takes him to the lawless wilds of Russia and the North Caucasus, he is forced to question everything he stood for.

Set in a fragmented, uncertain post-Soviet world, le Carré's brutal story of falsehoods and betrayal shows men playing dangerous games beyond their control.

Notă biografică

John le Carré was born in 1931. For six decades, he wrote novels that came to define our age. The son of a confidence trickster, he spent his childhood between boarding school and the London underworld. At sixteen he found refuge at the university of Bern, then later at Oxford. A spell of teaching at Eton led him to a short career in British Intelligence (MI5&6). He published his debut novel,Call for the Dead, in 1961 while still a secret servant. His third novel,The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, secured him a worldwide reputation, which was consolidated by the acclaim for his trilogyTinker Tailor Soldier Spy,The Honourable SchoolboyandSmiley's People. At the end of the Cold War, le Carré widened his scope to explore an international landscape including the arms trade and the War on Terror. His memoir,The Pigeon Tunnel, was published in 2016 and the last George Smiley novel,A Legacy of Spies, appeared in 2017. He died on 12 December 2020.

Recenzii

A wonderful book, absolutely in tune with the le Carré canon. I cannot think of a more compelling read.
