Title: Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy - a great place to start
Review: I read this book as a teenager, borrowing it from my fathers bookshelf. And that was a while ago, so perhaps four stars seems a bit much. But this was my first foray into the espionage genre and I haven't slowed down. It was a look into a supremely exciting, albeit grim business. I doubled back afterwards to read le Carres earlier works, then on to all of Helen MacInness espionage books and through all of Clancys and so on. And whenever I find a le Carre book I haven't read, I correct that immediately. I don't think there are any. I give TTSS four stars because I remember it as the wonderful adventure that started me on this terrific road. I can't get it on my Kindle, so I'm re-reading it in paperback.
