LE CARR?, John (pseudonym of CORNWELL, David John Moore (1931-2020)). The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. London: Victor Gollancz, 1963. 8vo. 222, [2, blank] pp. Publisher's full blue cloth, spine lettered in gilt, publisher's unclipped (?18/- net") dust jacket (minor rubbing to binding, some occasional faint soiling to edge of text block; jacket spine just barely sunned, one short, toned tear to upper margin of front panel near spine (about ?"). FIRST EDITION. A bright, fine copy, much better than usually seen. This influential novel changed the espionage genre, with most novels from here on depicting spies (whether from the western agencies or their opponents) as morally questionable. This novel was named by the Crime Writers of America as #3 on their list of Top 100 Crime Novels of All Time. It is the basis of the 1965 film directed by Martin Ritt, starring Richard Burton. Measurements: 9"L x 8"W x 1"H.
