The Ipcress File by Len Deighton
4.0
Tricky.
The opening made me utterly miserable: wonderful images combined with a sense of surreal, almost Kafkaesque bureaucratic unreality. By the time I worked out what was going on at *that* point, events had long since passed me by.
In the end--a satisfying mystery, and kudos for both giving me a sense of how disorienting trying to work things out really is, and the skill to pull me through.
