If you've never read John le Carre, here are five of his best

The Spy Who Came in from the Cold
Le Carre’s third novel brought him huge success and preciptated his departure from MI6. Alec Leamas is a British agent sent back into East Germany for one last mission.
But its true nature exposes the dubious morality and cynical manipulation of Leamas’ handlers.
Le Carre gives us a bleak account of the reality – as opposed to the Bond-like glamour - of an agent in the service of the intelligence system.
Bleak, brutal and brilliant, the novel was filmed with Richard Burton as the wretched Leamas.
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
Graham Greene called this the best spy story he had read and he’s not alone in that assessment. It’s about the hunt for a mole in the Secret Intelligence Service, known as the Circus. ....

How John Le Carré changed television and paved the way for box-set culture

How John Le Carré changed television and paved the way for box-set culture
Mark Lawson
Curiously, though, the first of these landmarks in upmarket screen drama owed its existence to the second.
In the 1970s, the BBC, during one of its periodic crises over justifying the licence fee to politicians and the media, craved a starry, classy, filmed book, and had been negotiating the rights to Waugh’s story of a Catholic aristocratic family. When, unexpectedly, the estate sold the book to Granada Television, Jonathan Powell, running BBC Drama, was asked to quickly find a replacement brainy treat. He settled on the 1974 first volume of Le Carré’s trilogy (later umbrella-titled The Quest for Karla) about the search by George Smiley, a Sherlock Holmes of the spook world, for Russian double-agents in the British secret service. ....

Obituary: John le Carré

BBC News
John le Carré was the pseudonym of the author David Cornwell, judged by many to be the master of the spy novel.
Meticulously researched, and elegantly written, many of his books reached a wider audience through TV and film adaptations.
Le Carré stripped away the glamour and romance that were a feature of the James Bond novels and instead examined the real dark and seedy life of the professional spy.
In the twilight world of le Carré s characters the distinction between good and bad, right and wrong was never that clear cut.
David John Moore Cornwell was born on 19 Oct 1931 in Poole, Dorset. ....

Le CarrÃ© upended the Bond stereotype with books that portrayed British intelligence operations as cesspools of ambiguity in which right and wrong are too close to call and in which it is rarely obvious whether the ends, even if the ends are clear, justify the means.
