The Pigeon Tunnel by John le Carré
Stories from My Life
A memoir-like collection of essays and anecdotes by a former intelligence insider turned novelist, recounting encounters with spies, defectors and eccentric figures while reflecting on the moral ambiguities, theatricality and personal costs of espionage; the pieces blend dry wit, literary craft and candid confession to explore how deception shaped both a life and a body of work, offering elegiac portraits of Cold War characters and the compromises that haunt their stories.
