A propos de cet article

An incredibly rare copy of the Lamplighter 1st edition 1st printing (thus) of the most influential spy novel of the twentieth century. Hodder & Stoughton 1991. With an added introduction written by le Carre for this edition. 8vo., first edition thus; black cloth, upper board blocked in blind, gilt back, a very good++ copy in unclipped dust jacket. First published in 1974 and republished in this beautifully-designed Lamplighter series. The Lamplighter Edition is now scarce in its own right, but is still a very useful way of acquiring a matching set of le Carre s first seven spy novels for those of us who can t pay the inflated prices for the originals. This copy is very good++ but not quite like new as there is some (very) minor wear to the unclipped DJ. Generally, a very good copy indeed. We pack our books properly and ship daily from the UK.

Synopsis

From the author of THE HONOURABLE SCHOOLBOY, SMILEY'S PEOPLE and THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD, a tale of espionage in which George Smiley embarks on a mission to catch a Soviet mole who has been operating for some thirty years.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Smiley and his people are facing a remarkable challenge: a mole - a soviet double agent - who has burrowed his way in and up to the highest level of British Intelligence. His treachery has already blown some of their vital operations and their best networks. The mole is one of their own kind. But which one?

''His people are full-bodied, believable individuals, the minor characters as vivid as the main cast ... a stunning story'
