«El espía que surgió del frío» is the spy novel by John le Carré, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (259 pages, in Spanish).
Classic of the spy genre centred on Alec Leamas, a British agent who wishes to retire and accepts a final assignment: to pretend to be a disgraced spy in order to thwart East German intelligence. The story takes the reader to the Cold War years and shows a profession full of deception and double intentions.
This work is the third instalment of the George Smiley series. The English original, «The Spy Who Came in from the Cold», was translated by Nieves Morón. It belongs to the Alta tensión collection.
Suitable for readers of espionage and thrillers, and for those who want to discover the work that brought international fame to John le Carré.
David John Moore Cornwell, known by his pen name John le Carré, was an English author. Many of his espionage novels have been adapted for film or television. He has been described as a "sophisticated, morally ambiguous writer", and is considered one of the greatest novelists of the postwar era. During the 1950s and 1960s, he worked for both the Security Service (MI5) and the Secret Intelligence Service (MI6). Near the end of his life, le Carré became an Irish citizen.
