I did love Perry but I thought Gail was brilliantly written. Although I wouldn't necessarily say that I liked her I thought the way le Carre wrote her character was very perceptive.<br /><br />Hi T - The main reason the characters head to Paris is to attend the French Open tennis final - so there isn't a real lot of Paris travel highlights apart from that! I think this book would make a great holiday read - I will hold onto it for you.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15971901652392645980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1433153409320048017.post-3512368084735985762010-10-23T23:21:24.048-07:002010-10-23T23:21:24.048-07:00When you answer Kelly's question about charact...When you answer Kelly's question about character, perhaps you could also provide some details about what links the story to Paris? I liked the Constant Gardener and I dont mind a spy story. This one might be a good holiday read.

I've been wanting to give some of his other books a try and I might pick up the one you mentioned reading in high school.<br /><br />Did you have any favorite characters in Our Kind of Traitor? I thought he did a superb job of giving them all unique personalities. Perry was hilarious at times :)Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16933950234435601434noreply@blogger.com
