The Naive and Sentimental Lover: The Penguin John le Carré Hardback Collection

Autor John le Carré
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 2 oct 2019
'Splendid ... le Carré shows how endowed he is with the gift of storytelling'The Times

Aldo Cassidy is a cautious man. He has a pleasant family, drives a safe, expensive car and wears luxurious clothes. But his soothing existence is upended when he meets Shamus and Helen - a dazzling, bohemian couple who are everything he is not. As he is drawn into their reckless and unpredictable orbit, all that Cassidy thought he understood about his orderly life begins to unravel.

Told with le Carré's lacerating wit and penetrating observation,The Naive and Sentimental Loveris an acerbic satire of middle-class hypocrisies.

'Le Carré is the equal of any novelist now writing'Guardian

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.
