In all, this is a beautiful example of this modern first edition by le Carre. It is in Fine condition with no points to speak of. Adapted into a film in 2014, this book tells the tale of a young Chechen ex-prisoner, smuggled into Germany in the dead of night, destitute and half-starved but with a claim to a fortune held in a private bank. Poignant, compassionate, peopled with characters the reader never wants to let go, 'A Most Wanted Man' is a work of deep humanity, and uncommon relevance to our times.
