Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Shabby 70’s London Part 1
Manage episode 382167727 series 3374744
This episode I’m excited to welcome Phil Tinline and Bernard Hughes to the show.
We discuss Phil’s article in the New Statesman on the London of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy by John le Carré and how it’s different from the London of today.
Topics include the political background of Tinker, whether Tinker was a case of perfect timing, how the echos of the 30’s reverberated in the 70’s and some quibbles with Richard Hutt’s placement of various locations in his le Carré map
All that and more in this episode.
Come back in two weeks for part two.
