In this episode, novelist Michael Idov joins me to discuss John le Carré’s novel Our Game. Michael has written for numerous publications, was the Editor in chief of GQ Russia, is also a screenwriter and director and author of the new spy novel The Collaborators.

We talk about why we enjoy one of le Carré’s more underrated novels. Plus we get into the politics of the time as well as how le Carré was prescient about the situation with Russia and the Caucasus region.

All that and much more in this episode.
