John le Carré

[version]

He's dead.

I've only read one, but I was a fan of the famous Tinker Tailor adaptation (and the film too actually).

 

[IdleRich]

Yeah I've read Tinker Tailor and seen the film and the series but not any of his others. That was great though, brilliant story and the low-key seventies greyness that infused it really suited my mood at the time. I don't know why I haven't read more to be honest.
Whatever RIP.

Good riddance.

I don't mean that I don't have a Lee Carer opinion.

Actually, I dunno why I said that. I have read others in fact. Taylor of Panama springs to mind. What else did he write? I've probably read loads... but what's the point if I can't even remember?

I've read a few recently. I'm halfway through the honourable schoolboy. Best one so far. Bit more colour and life to it.

The Tinker Tailor adaptations made me feel a bit ill. There's something very grey and queasy about them, like sitting in an old smoking room.
