Jogn le Carré once mused that his upbringing shared certain traits with that of Kim Philby, namely an authoritarian father, a weak mother, and a latent hatred for British society, and that if, in his early adult years, someone had approached him and offered him to spy for the Soviets, he would have been tempted to accept.
How damaging would it have been for British intelligence if that had come to pass and le Carré had become a Soviet mole?
