The Honourable Schoolboy

Short Review: The Honorable Schoolboy: A George Smiley Novel by John le Carré - the second in the informal Karla Trilogy. It could have been edited down a little bit, but I still like the realistic feel and the slow burn method of le Carre. Clear turn in the writing to be more against the excesses of the western world instead of the communism of the east. Grounded in the history of the end of the Vietnam war, although never about that. Worth reading in context of le Carre's other work, but not my favorite of the le Carre books I have read so far.
