Le Carré's third novel, ''The Spy Who Came in from the Cold'' (1963), became an international best-seller, was adapted as an award-winning film, and remains one of his best-known works. This success allowed him to leave MI6 to become a full-time author. His other novels that have been adapted for film or television include ''The Looking Glass War'' (1965), ''Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy'' (1974), ''Smiley's People'' (1979), ''The Little Drummer Girl'' (1983), ''The Russia House'' (1989), ''The Night Manager'' (1993), ''The Tailor of Panama'' (1996), ''The Constant Gardener'' (2001), ''A Most Wanted Man'' (2008) and ''Our Kind of Traitor'' (2010). Philip Roth said that ''A Perfect Spy'' (1986) was "the best English novel since the war". Provided by Wikipedia
