After the Berlin Wall came down and opened up new changes in eastern Europe, John le Carre's stunning novel, The Secret Pilgrim, takes us behind the scenes into the former Cold War world. Nothing is as it was. Old enemies embrace. The dark staging grounds of the Cold War, whose shadows barely obscured the endless games of espionage, are flooded with light; the rules are rewritten, the stakes changed, the future unfathomable. John le Carre has seized this momentous turning point in history to give us the most disturbing experience we have yet had of the frail and brutal world of spydom. The man called Ned speaks to us. All his adult life he has been in British Intelligence--the Circus--a loyal, shrewd, wily officer of the Cold War. Now, approaching the end of his career, he revisits his own past. He invites us on a tour of his three decades in the Circus, burrowing deep into the twilight world where he ran spies--'joes'--from Poland, Estonia, Hungary.

The dark staging grounds of the Cold War-whose shadows barely obscured the endless games of espionage-are flooded with light; the rules are rewritten, the stakes changes, the future unfathomable. John le Carr� has seized this momentous turning point in history to give us the most disturbing experience we have yet had of the frail and brutal world of spydom. The man called Ned speaks to us. All his adult life he has been in British Intelligence-the Circus-a loyal, shrewd, wily officer of the Cold War. Now, approaching the end of his career, he revisits his own past-an intricate weave of suspicion, danger, boredom and exhilaration that is the essence of espionage and of his own sentimental education. He invites us on a tour of his three decades in the Circus, burrowing deep into the twilight the Circus, burrowing deep into the twilight world where he ran spies-"joes"-from Poland, Estonia, Hungary, men and women to whom he gave his most profound love and hate. Along the way we meet a host of splendid new characters and reacquaint ourselves with the legendary old knights of the Circus and the notorious traitor, Bill Haydon. Telling the story of his own life's secret pilgrimage, Ned illuminates the brave past and the even braver present of George Smiley-reluctant keeper of the flame-who combines within himself the ideal and the reality of the Circus. Smiley, Ned's mentor and hero, now gives back to him the "dangerous edge" of memory which.

352 pages, Text in english, illustrated cover, average age-related darkened, cover with slight traces of use, otherwise good / 352 Seiten, Text auf englisch, illustrierter Einband, Schnitt altersbedingt nachgedunkelt, Einband mit leichten Gebrauchsspuren The Secret Pilgrim is a 1990 novel, set within the frame narrative of a series of lectures by John le Carré's George Smiley, famous only within the 'Circus'. The memoirs, narrated by Ned, a former Smiley protege, are, except for the last, triggered by tangential comments from the man himself in lectures given at Sarratt, the spy-training college which Ned runs. However, they are primarily accounts of Ned's own experiences rather than of Smiley'S. Ned, who does not give his surname, represents himself as the head of the Russia House in The Russia House, disgraced by the defection of Barley Blair and hence condemned to a semi-retirement in charge of Sarratt. The Secret Pilgrim is effectively a collection of short stories, tied together as Ned's recollection. Many of them are recognisable anecdotes or urban legends within the British Intelligence community. Within the first few pages the novel reveals the ending of The Russia House and the identity of the mole in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 200, Books.
