pp. 546, orange gilt embossed leather, silk endpapers, satin ribbon, AEG, 3 raised bands, includes pamphlet. “As the fall of Saigon looms, master spy George Smiley must outmaneuver his Soviet counterpart on a battlefield that neither can afford to lose. // The mole has been eliminated, but the damage wrought has brought the British Secret Service to its knees. Given the charge of the gravely compromised Circus, George Smiley embarks on a campaign to uncover what Moscow Centre most wants to hide. When the trail goes cold at a Hong Kong gold seam, Smiley dispatches Gerald Westerby to shake the money tree. A part-time operative with cover as a philandering journalist, Westerby insinuates himself into a war-torn world where allegiances—and lives—are bought and sold. // Brilliantly plotted and morally complex, The Honourable Schoolboy is the second installment of John le Carre’s renowned Karla trilogy and a riveting portrayal of postcolonial espionage.”
