Hardcover. Condizione: New. Special Edition. Le Carré understood that espionage is an extreme version of the human comedy, even the human tragedy. A Perfect Spy will very likely remain his greatest book. Widely regarded as John le Carré s masterpiece, A Perfect Spy is also the author s most autobiographical work, drawing on his own early life and experiences. The result is a novel that is both a thrill ride of interconnected mysteries, and a moving portrayal of a life marked by subterfuge and betrayal. For this first ever illustrated edition, The Folio Society and artist Sam Green worked closely with the le Carré estate to ensure that the illustrations captured all the novel s tension and poignancy. When talking about the book, le Carré commented: Although I've never been to a shrink, writing A Perfect Spy is probably what a very wise shrink would have advised me to do . This very special novel represents a chance not only to read one of the greatest spy stories every written, it also provides an opportunity to get to know one of our greatest writers a little better. Acid proof paper, fine typography, black stained text block, and wonderful evocative illustrations. This is truly an HEIRLOOM standard production from Folio. In its original slipcase and wrapping and box. Frankly stunning! This first printing will be the edition of record.
