Title: The Sins of the Father
Review: I have read A Perfect Spy three times over the years. Each time I have read it more slowly than the last. It is that kind of book. In fact the first few chapters (which seem to garner the most complaints) seem purposely dense, just to slow the reader down. The writing is thick with shifting tense, ambguity, dead-end content, and a cast of bit players who do not all contribute to the larger story. Le Carre owes as much to Dickens as he does to his own life experiences.For the determined and patient reader this is as good as the genre gets, but it rises above the genre as a character study of a man who has taken a lifetime to find himself. The lead character, Magnus Pym, who is not entirely a protagonist, spends all of his childhood and most of his adulthood trying on different versions of himself, modeled after his miscreant father Rick, Rick's ever-changing retinue of hangers-on, and countless other influences. It is a fascinating journey for Pym and for us.
