He asks his old mentor, George Smiley, to address his passing-out class. There are no laundered reminiscences; Smiley speaks the truth - perhaps the last the students will ever hear. As they listen, Ned recalls his own painful triumphs and inglorious failures, in a career that took him from the Western Isles of Scotland to Hamburg and from Israel to Cambodia. He asks himself: Did it do any Used? What did it do to me? And what will happen to us now? In this late Smiley novel, the great spy gives his own humane and unexpected answers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIf you enjoyed \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Secret Pilgrim\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e, you might like le Carré's \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Spy Who Came In From the Cold\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e'Consummate and enthralling'\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eObserver\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Best of used books","offers":[{"title":"Used","offer_id":45156789780666,"sku":"2N3LUUJNL-Used","price":19.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/5576\/0826\/files\/TheSecretPilgrim_PenguinModernClassics.jpg?v=1758037429","url":"https:\/\/clappingpages.com\/products\/the-secret-pilgrim-penguin-modern-classics","provider":"Clapping Pages","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
