Description
No reader, whatever his politics, could fail to be moved by the passion and intelligence of le Carré's latest.—Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
Broke and working as a tour guide in Germany, rootless Englishman Ted Mundy catches a glimpse of an old friend hiding in the shadows. A friend he thought was lost to him. A friend who took him from radical 1960s Berlin to life as a double agent. Now, decades later, the Cold War is over and the war on terror has begun. Sasha has another mission for them both, but this time it is impossible to tell the difference between allies—and enemies.
From the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of The Little Drummer Girl and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Absolute Friends has been hailed as the masterpiece toward which John le Carré was building since the fall of Communism. This thrilling tale of loyalty, betrayal, and international espionage is classic le Carré. Actor John Guy Lewis narrates this new audio edition.
Absolute Friends is a work of fist-shaking, Orwellian outrage. […] This is le Carré in career form: his anger burns cold and clear. Rage has given back his pacing its sharp, irresistible snap, his wry social observation its bite, and his signature backstage knife-play its deadly edge. But even more, he shows us […] that a single novel can express both an urgent, immediate sense of grievance and the melancholy perspective of an old man looking back on a long life lived in a tragic, tumultuous century.—Lev Grossman, Time.
