I loved this book. It's just brilliant. This is how all spy thrillers should be, especially spy thrillers about the Cold War.

This, according to my humble opinion, is Dickens masterpiece. I have read nearly all of Dickens and in Little Dorrit does he finally achieve a perfection of story-telling with social critique. The only other novel that comes as close is Bleak House but I think Little Dorrit is better. Bleak House tends to introduce superfluous characters and story lines that do not go anywhere, whereas everyone and everything in Little Dorrit has a point.
