About the Book

«Un buen escritor no es experto en nada salvo en sí mismo. Y sobre ese tema, si es listo, cierra la boca.» John le Carré.

En este apasionante relato, el autor comparte con el lector la historia de su vida, la historia de la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Le Carré por fin desvela los episodios de espionaje sobre los que siempre ha callado; la increíble historia de su padre, sus largos viajes por el mundo... Presidentes, primeros ministros, grandes escritores, un sinnúmero de interesantes personajes que ha encontrado en su camino, y que han marcado nuestra Historia, se dan cita en este relato único.

«A partir del mundo secreto que en otro tiempo conocí, he intentado crear un teatro para los mundos más extensos que habitamos. Primero viene la imaginación; después, la búsqueda de la realidad. Después, la imaginación otra vez, y el escritorio ante el cual estoy sentado.»

Desde sus años al servicio de la Inteligencia Británica durante la Guerra Fría, hasta la carrera de escritor que lo llevó desde una Camboya desgarrada por la guerra hasta el Beirut de la invasión israelí de 1982, pasando por la Rusia de antes y después de la caída del Muro de Berlín, John le Carré siempre ha escrito desde el corazón de los tiempos modernos. En éstas, sus primeras memorias, resulta tan divertido como incisivo, al interpretar los sucesos de los que es testigo con la misma ambigüedad moral que impregna sus novelas. Tanto cuando escribe sobre el loro de un hotel de Beirut que imitaba a la perfección el ruido de las ametralladoras y los compases iniciales de la Quinta de Beethoven, como cuando visita los museos de Ruanda de los muertos insepultos tras el genocidio, o celebra la Nochevieja de 1982 en compañía de Yasir Arafat y su alto mando, o entrevista a una terrorista alemana en su prisión del desierto del Néguev, o escucha las sabias observaciones del gran físico, disidente y ganador del Premio Nobel, Andréi Sájarov, o cuando se reúne con dos antiguos jefes del KGB, o ve cómo se prepara Alec Guinness para su papel de George Smiley en las legendarias adaptaciones para la televisión de la BBC, o describe a la cooperante que inspiró a la protagonista de El jardinero fiel, le Carré presenta cada episodio con humor y vívida intensidad, haciéndonos reír a carcajadas o invitándonos a recapacitar sobre acontecimientos y personas que creíamos haber comprendido.

Mejor todavía, le Carré nos permite vislumbrar el trayecto de un escritor a lo largo de más de seis decenios, y su propia búsqueda de la chispa humana que tanta vida y corazón ha conferido a sus personajes de ficción.
