In this astonishing work we see our world, both public and private, through the eyes of one of the world's greatest writers.

From his years serving in British Intelligence during the Cold War, to a career as a writer that took him from war-torn Cambodia to Beirut on the cusp of the 1982 Israeli invasion, to Russia before and after the collapse of the Berlin Wall, John le Carre has always written from the heart of modern times. The Pigeon Tunnel gives us a glimpse of the writer's journey over more than six decades, and his own hunt for the human spark that has given so much life to his fictional characters.

Reviews for The Pigeon Tunnel: Stories from My Life: NOW A MAJOR APPLE TV MOTION PICTURE

John le Carré is as recognizable a writer as Dickens or Austen * Financial Times * When I was under house arrest I was helped by the books of John le Carré ... they were a journey into the wider world ... These were the journeys that made me feel that I was not really cut off from the rest of humankind * Aung San Suu Kyi * No other writer has charted - pitilessly for politicians but thrillingly for readers - the public and secret histories of his times * Guardian *
