Review title: Run away from this book...swiftly!!!
Product review: John le Carre used to write very good, suspenseful, exciting spy novels. I picked this book up to read on a cross-country flight. This book was nothing more than a horrendously boring, philosophically inept, left-wing socialist rant. It did have a few exciting pages when the two main characters were actively engaged in espionage, but this small, short-lived homage to John le Carre books of the past was overshadowed by the leftist, anti-American political diatribe that the rest of the book consisted of. I'll admit, I am a conservative politically, but I can't begin to see how even the most died-in-the-wool liberal/leftist/socialist could stand all the endless pages of drippy left wing philosophy and pseudo-intellectualism.I highly recommend that when you see this book on the shelves, you very hurriedly turn and run the other way, "Absolute Friends" is an utter waste of time and money.
