«If you want to know about the state of Britain today, forget the Booker shortlist. Just read John le Carré's latest thriller»
Evening Standard
«Chilling and astute . . . In Our Kind of Traitor, there is not a hair out of place . . . le Carré has done it again for our nasty new age»
The Times
«Few recent plays have had dialogue as good, and few recent literary novels can boast a set of characters so vividly imagined. Our Kind of Traitor is a teasing, beguiling, masterly performance»
