Among other things, the description of running an Agent (Fred Leiser) through the Iron Curtain at night remains one of the best I've seen.
On a larger scale, this is a story of the mounting bureaucratic infighting between a military intelligence operation and the emergent power of the "Circus", Control and George Smiley. Like most good LeCarre novels it is also a story of more primal human emotions and their impact, in this case, on espionage operations. Very much worth the read.
