Reviews
Praise for A DELICATE TRUTH "At the moment a new generation is stumbling upon his work, le Carré is still writing at something close to the top of his game…. [ A Delicate Truth ] is an elegant yet embittered indictment of extraordinary rendition, American right-wing evangelical excess and the corporatization of warfare. It has a gently flickering love story and jangling ending. And le Carré has not lost his ability to sketch, in a line or two, an entire character."-Dwight Garner, The New York Times Magazine "The narrative dominoes fall with masterly precision....As ever, le Carré's prose is fluid, carrying the reader toward an inevitable yet nail-biting climax."-Olen Steinhauer, The New York Times Book Review "Well-wrought….A sharply sketched gallery of characters."- The Wall Street Journal "Le Carré is fiercely modern…a confluence of styles, voices, approaches….A novel that beckons us beyond any and all expectations."- Washington Post "Le Carré is, as always, a lyrical writer….[C]haracter sketches with precision."- Bloomberg "Gorgeous writing. It's sophisticated storytelling at its very best."- USA Today "A ripping, fun yarn."- Entertainment Weekly "Loyalty to the crown is tested; consciences are checked; and nothing is more terrifying than, as this novel's protagonist puts it, 'a solitary decider' asking himself how on earth he talked himself into this mess."- The Daily Beast "The dirty deeds are brutal and crude. And so is the cover-up."- The Huffington Post "Le Carré further establishes himself as a master of a new, shockingly realistic kind of noir."- Booklist (Starred) "This is a guaranteed hair-raising cerebral fright, especially for anyone who enjoyed Robert Harris's The Ghost or who just knows his or her email account has been hacked."- Library Journal (Starred) "Le Carré focuses on the moral rot and creeping terror barely concealed by the affable old-boy blather that marks the pillars of the intelligence community."- Kirkus Reviews (Starred) "A great story in sterling prose."- Publishers Weekly "The upper register of a great writer's oeuvre. Knowledge is not power in the novel: John le Carré believes that truth, difficult and generous on its own, can also kill you."- St. Louis Post-Dispatch "Characteristically clever."- The Kansas City Star "Witty as it is insightful…. A Delicate Truth is a delightful read that unnerves as it entertains."- The Columbus Dispatch "A career's worth of literary skill and international analysis…..No other writer has chartered…the public and secret history of his times."- The Guardian (UK) "Remarkable….[ A Delicate Truth ] displays the mastery of the early and the passion of late Le Carré."-Robert McCrum, The Observer (UK) "Writing of such quality that…it will be read in one hundred years….[Le Carré] found his canvas in espionage, as Dickens did in other worlds. The two men deserve comparison."- Daily Mail (UK) "The tension ratchets up superbly as revelation follows on revelation….[Le Carré] is a writer of towering gifts, whose fiction appeals to a reading public both popular and serious….A talent to provoke as well as unsettle."- The Independent (UK), "Le Carré further establishes himself as a master of a new, shockingly realistic kind of noir."- Booklist, "Le Carré further establishes himself as a master of a new, shockingly realistic kind of noir."- Booklist (Starred) "Le Carré focuses on the moral rot and creeping terror barely concealed by the affable old-boy blather that marks the pillars of the intelligence community."- Kirkus Reviews (Starred) "A great story in sterling prose."- Publishers Weekly, "At the moment a new generation is stumbling upon his work, le Carré is still writing at something close to the top of his game….

Synopsis
John le Carré's memoir, The Pigeon Tunnel: Stories from My Life, will be available from Viking in September 2016 "A novel that beckons us beyond any and all expectations."--Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post A counter-terrorist operation, codenamed Wildlife , is being mounted on the British crown colony of Gibraltar. Its purpose: to capture and abduct a high-value jihadist arms buyer. Its authors: an ambitious Foreign Office Minister, a private defense contractor who is also his bosom friend, and a shady American CIA operative of the evangelical far-right. So delicate is the operation that even the Minister's personal private secretary, Toby Bell, is not cleared for it. Three years later, a disgraced Special Forces Soldier delivers a message from the dead. Was Operation Wildlife the success it was cracked up to be--or a human tragedy that was ruthlessly covered up? Summoned by Sir Christopher ("Kit") Probyn, retired British diplomat, to his decaying Cornish manor house, and closely observed by Kit's daughter, Emily, Toby must choose between his conscience and duty to his Service. If the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing, how can he keep silent?, John le Carr 's memoir, The Pigeon Tunnel: Stories from My Life, will be available from Viking in September 2016 "A novel that beckons us beyond any and all expectations."--Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post A counter-terrorist operation, codenamed Wildlife , is being mounted on the British crown colony of Gibraltar.
