A Most Wanted Man de John Le Carré

A Most Wanted Man

Autor John Le Carré
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 sep 2018
'One of the most sophisticated fictional responses to the war on terror yet published' Guardian

An illegal Muslim immigrant arrives in Hamburg with a traumatic past and the key to a fortune held in a private bank. He says his name is Issa. To the idealistic young human rights lawyer Annabel, determined to save him from deportation, he is a worthy cause. To the intelligence services of Britain, Germany and America, however, he is a potential jihadist - and a pawn between them as they seek to make a kill in the war on terror.

A Most Wanted Man is a gripping and disquieting story of paranoia, disillusionment and betrayal in the moral no-man's land of the post-9/11 world.

'A first-class novel about the most pressing concerns of our time' Daily Telegraph

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 trilogy Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, The Honourable Schoolboy and Smiley'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.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Le Carre's fiercely compelling novel begins as a half-starved young Russian man is smuggled into Hamburg in the dead of night. Annabel, an idealistic German civil rights lawyer, determines to save him from deportation. Soon, her client's survival becomes more important than her own career--or safety.
