À propos de cette écoute

Brought to you by Penguin.

Now a new six-part ITV drama starring Joe Cole, as iconic spy Harry Palmer, Lucy Boynton and Tom Hollander.

A high-ranking scientist has been kidnapped. A secret British intelligence agency must find out why. But as the quarry is pursued from grimy Soho to the other side of the world, what seemed a straightforward mission turns into something far more sinister. With its sardonic, cool, working-class hero, Len Deighton's sensational debut The IPCRESS File rewrote the spy thriller and became the defining novel of 1960s London.

    "A stone-cold Cold War classic." (Toby Litt, Guardian)

    "Changed the shape of the espionage thriller...there is an infectious energy about this book which makes it a joy to read." (Daily Telegraph)

    I saw the film, and just loved it. I wanted more. Thought I'd give the book a go. I didn't know the author at all. The story is very elaborate (definitely more complex than in the film). The main character (one Harry Palmer, though his name is not mentioned) has a very British sense of humour, and his relationship towards hierarchy is most amusing. If you are into cold war stories, you should enjoy this highly entertaining yarn. Never a dull moment. The reader is excellent, and at times, his voice reminded me of Michael Caine's, in the film, which made it easy to connect the two pieces of work. Only beware! Len Deighton, I found out, was a prolific writer... You might well be tempted to listen to his other books (which luckily are available in the audible collection) I am happily diving into a 3rd, equally intricate, brilliant piece of writing... The others are on my wish list...

    A must for good cold war espionage story lovers. James Lailey's rendition is a treat
