Review
" 'A powerful, moving novel... essential reading' - Chris Woodhead, Sunday Telegraph. 'Richly detailed, full of righteous fire... It is certainly one of John le Carre's best books' - Sean O'Brien, The Times Literary Supplement. 'Le Carre poses deep spiritual questions about the damage 'the human race' has done, and continues to do, both to the planet and to itself. He does so in a page-tumer which reminds us that the master storyteller of the Smiley books has lost none of his cunning' - A.N. Wilson, Daily Mail"
Book Description
John le Carré's international bestseller - now a major film from the director of CITY OF GOD, starring Ralph Fiennes and Rachel Weisz

beautifully written.... lovely prose. When high spirited Tessa and her mentor are brutally murdered on their trail of unearthing a pharma company's misdemeanours, her husband the mild British diplomat Justin makes it his mission to track them down. what follows is a detective and a love story so captivating... that it draws you in. A story that haunts you even after you have turned the final page.

Good topic, happened in earlier years in Africa, not happening now we suppose. However, one has to be wary of Big Pharma always.

Book delivered was a refurbished one. Atleast 3rdhand by the look of the pages. Just new bind.
I hope there are no more fake products on your menu.

I agree with Mr. Praveen. The book I received might be at least 3rd or 4th hand with a new bind. Utterly disappointed with dealstar

Excellent
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 August 2018Verified Purchase
I like John le Carres books, they manage to convey atmosphere so well you feel like you are in the place. And I love and recognise the peculiar Englishness of his characters, but I am an older person so do wonder whether that stuffy strain is really reflective of modern people, it seems more apropos to his cold war books. This is a gentle telling of egregious and violent deeds, of corruption and greed. It doesn't lecture, harangue the reader or over smart itself, it's very subtle and unfolds the story slowly through different characters eyes. It will stay with me for a while

I didn't want it to end
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 January 2021Verified Purchase
While I've always been aware of Le Carre's work its only very recently that I've read any of it. So far this is my favourite, and definitely ranks in my top 5 of all time.
A beautifully written, intriguing novel that I found hard to put down. The characters have such life that i feel as if i have already met them somewhere in real life. I can't wait to carry on reading the entire catalogue.

Distressing, depressing, but a Must-Read
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 August 2018Verified Purchase
Basically, a miseryfest (think Bronte etc for literary comparisons). Despite Le Carre's protestations in the after-word that it's all lies (ie fiction), you can't help picking up the impression that this plot happened in the real world. It's not so much the Great deaths (eg Mrs Quayle) but the little ones brought to life (sorry) by Le Carre that also hit home. It's a beautifully woven story & maybe it does have a happy ending, Wuthering Heights style. Not a book to read if you need cheering up, a must-read for anyone in the pharmaceutical/international development industry, and all interested parties.

Author portrays an out of date background
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 March 2017Verified Purchase
I grew up in Africa and yet I didn't relate to how the people behaved or lived in the book. It felt to me like this book is stuck in the colonial past - more appropriate for the 1950s, yet the setting of the book is clearly more modern.
It seems to me that Mr Le Carre has relied on a very dated and perfunctory experience of life in Africa to build a 500 page book that just does not ring true. A novel for a novel's sake. I probably would have enjoyed it more if I had been ignorant of the real life in Africa.

A Very Good read
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 September 2018Verified Purchase
Probably the best of Le Carre's more recent work. My wife says I've seen the film, but I've no recollection of it, so that didn't influence my view!
Good to see a "spy story" with an ethical storyline, and not too convoluted at that.
Highly recommended!
