Аннотация
Over the course of his seemingly irreproachable life, Magnus Pym has been all things to all people: a devoted family man, a trusted colleague, a loyal friend-and the perfect spy. But in the wake of his estranged father's death, Magnus vanishes, and the British Secret Service is up in arms. Is it grief, or is the reason for his disappearance more sinister? And who is the mysterious man with the sad mustache who also seems to be looking for Magnus? In *A Perfect Spy*, John le Carre has crafted one of his crowning masterpieces, interweaving a moving and unusual coming-of-age story with a morally tangled chronicle of modern espionage.
MAGNUS PYM — The master operative. A perfect spy. Locked in furious combat with the conflicting demons of his twisted loyalties. A battle that may eventually tear him to pieces.
MARY PYM — Magnus's devoted wife and partner in tradecraft, bowed under the crushing weight of shocking revelations about the man she loved but never truly knew.
JACK BROTHERHOOD — Pym's superior, rival, mentor, friend. Like a modern-day Dr.Frankenstein, he is threatened with ruin at the hands of his own creation.
RICK PYM — Magnus's charismatic father. A charming, unprincipled con man who created a deadly, inescapable legacy of treachery and deception to pass along to his unsuspecting heir.
JOHN LE CARRÉ was born in 1931 and attended the universities of Bern and Oxford. He taught at Eton and served briefly in British Intelligence during the Cold War. For the last 50 years he has lived by his pen. He divides his time between London and Cornwall.
