How to review this book? It is unquestionably well written. It is also pretty thoroughly unpleasant. There is barely one likable character in it, and that not the main character. Mind you, I didn’t necessarily dislike Smiley. He’s too much of a cipher to dislike (which is just, it would seem, as it is meant to be). I doubt that I will be reading any more Le Carré.
