Call for the Dead

The first of the George Smiley novels.

For some reason beyond my comprehension, I had not read this book. Given how much I like Cold War spy stories, this is beyond weird.

I am almost sure I read one of Le Carré’s books when I was 15 or so, and I didn’t really enjoy it. How wrong I was.

Anyway, this is the stuff I love. And, from now on, I am going to introduce myself as the George Smiley of software engineering. IYKYK
