For six decades, he wrote novels that came to define our age. The son of a con man, he spent his childhood between boarding school and the London underworld. At sixteen he found refuge at the university of Bern, then later at Oxford. A spell of teaching at Eton led him to a short career in British Intelligence (MI5\u0026amp;6). He published his debut novel, \u003ci\u003eCall for the Dead\u003c\/i\u003e, in 1961 while still a secret servant. His third novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Spy Who Came in from the Cold\u003c\/i\u003e, secured him a worldwide reputation, which was consolidated by the acclaim for his trilogy \u003ci\u003eTinker Tailor Soldier Spy\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Honourable Schoolboy\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eSmiley's People\u003c\/i\u003e. At the end of the Cold War, le Carré widened his scope to explore an international landscape including the arms trade and the War on Terror. His memoir, \u003ci\u003eThe Pigeon Tunnel\u003c\/i\u003e, was published in 2016 and the last George Smiley novel, \u003ci\u003eA Legacy of Spies\u003c\/i\u003e, appeared in 2017.
