of democracy over the years. In this respect The Spy
unveils such untouched issues of the western world. Le Carre
highlights the conflicts of the western world. The Spy is the story
of the victimization of some people for the sake of society.
Within this context, Le Carre deduces the hypocrisy of the west.

character and to uncover the hypocrisy behind democracy.
