«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.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know. PRO: * Very likable characters * Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well * The spelling and grammar are good * The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens. CON: * Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack * Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done * Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order THINGS TO KNOW: * More steamy scenes than storytelling * A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons. A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good. B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy. Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”?? Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer. Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward. Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.

Fantastic writing and non-stop action
Format: Kindle
This is a promising, fantastic beginning to what will be a 4-book series. Some readers may be content to read only the first 2 books, but I think you'll find that the story is so good that you'll want to keep reading books 3 and 4. Book 1 is about omega Elvana's introduction to the "Starling" brothers and their search for another missing person, Kelly. It's a bit of a rocky start, with deception and betrayal a key element. Hardly an auspicious beginning. Each member has their own path and purpose in the pack. Their interactions and the resulting narrative are so well-written that I found it difficult to put down. There is a cliffhanger that will have you reaching for book 2 as you finish, so make sure you have it on hand.

Fun read
Format: Kindle
I'm not really into mafia books but I love Roxy Collin's other series so I decided to give it a try. It had the same great romance, spice, swoon-worthy characters and exciting plot that are her signature. Arben was my favorite, although it was a bit sudden how quickly he changed from ignoring her to wanting to be pack. There were almost too many twists/layers of lies to keep track of but I'm looking forward to reading the other books. The only thing that detracted from the story for me was the need for a bit more proofreading. It was mentioned that Kelly is a female and male at different points, leading me to think she changed her mind at some point about the character's gender but didn't go back and edit it to align in all places. Like another reviewer pointed out, step siblings are different than half siblings. They are incorrectly referred to as step siblings because they (allegedly) share the same biological dad. There are a few other typos as well but those aren't a big deal.
