Great article on Len Deighton at London Review of Books. Starts with Harry Palmer, moves to Bernard Samson. I loved the Samson books.

sounds interesting, haven’t checked out the article yet but the Samson books are legit classics. always down for more spy fiction recommendations, thanks for sharing!
sounds like a solid read, love Deighton’s style. the samson books are underrated gems for sure.
Deighton really doesn’t get enough credit alongside the likes of John le Carré. The Bernard Samson books in particular feel sharper, funnier, and more grounded in the bureaucracy of espionage.
