Finished Call for The Dead, the first George Smiley book. Smiley is in 8 Le Carre books and I had never been able to finish one. Thanks to my sister I downloaded Call for The Dead and listened to it. I'm tired of NPR and most of the news so I'm taking a break. This was a drift back to the cold war era that I remember and an England that I don't. It was good but, again, I can't decide if I really liked it. Great use of a good cast.
