Darya for Harper's

“His impulsive escape from the rat race had gotten off to a wretched start. And if the accounts didn’t say the rest of it, he could say it for himself: he was not equipped for the loneliness of celibacy; the clamorous voices of his recent past were not to be quelled by distance; and his lack of the basic literary education required of your upmarket bookseller was not to be repaired in a couple of months.”

Darya Shnykina illustrated an exclusive excerpt of John le Carré’s final novel, Silverview, for the October issue of Harper's magazine.

Needless to say, Darya's evocative style was perfect for the job :-)
