Talk Errol Morris Did Not Like This Q&A About His le Carré FilmJohn le Carré’s spy novels traffic in the philosophical, emotional and practical ambiguities complicating concepts like truth, deceit and self-awareness. “The reason that I made ‘The Pigeon Tunnel,’” he said about le Carré, “is that he is interested in philosophical questions. I say to le Carré that for him the world divides into two groups: string-pullers and dupes. Mark Lipson, via Fourth Floor ProductionsWhat does John le Carré say about your position as an interviewer at the beginning of the film? I have a question about this idea that le Carré has: that the world divides into string-pullers and dupes.

☆ The National Book Awards Longlist

One of the best birthday gifts I’ve ever received was a stack of four or five books, all published the year I was born. I hadn’t read John le Carré’s “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy,” but now I felt a connection to it; we’d both come into being at roughly the same time. The all-you-can-read buffet of books available begs a reader, especially a slow reader like me, to develop a strategy. This week, the National Book Foundation announced the longlist for the 2023 National Book Awards, presenting a crop of books on which a hungry reader could happily feast from now through the end of the year. (“Chain-Gang All-Stars,” by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah and “Fire Weather,” by John Vaillant just moved to the top of my list.)
