The Naive and Sentimental Lover by John le Carre – Explored Part 2

38 min•27 april 2026

This episode we are back with author James Wolff to continue to discuss John le Carré’s novel The Naïve and Sentimental Lover.

We talk more about these characters, James Kennaway’s Some Gorgeous Accident, and the reality of marriage vs reality.

What song by a well known band is based on the novel? What did le Carré take away from the experience of writing the novel? And what should other writers take away from how it was received?

Plus, worst wedding in the world!

All that and more in this episode!
