Stalin's Englishman. The multiple lives of Guy Burgess, the joker of the Cambridge spy deck
19.99 €
This book is about Guy Burgess, an unrecognized espionage genius and the most eccentric agent of Soviet intelligence. In 1951 Burgess fled to the USSR and for twelve years faithfully served his adopted country, but being English to the core, he was unable to adapt to life in Stalin's Russia. The activities of the true leader of the Cambridge Five is still the object of all sorts of fabrications and speculation, contemporaries and curators from the KGB give the most contradictory and ambiguous characteristics of his personality. Andrew Lowney has managed to create a multidimensional portrait of a remarkable, flawed intellectual, a representative of the generation of Western left-wing intellectuals, who in the 30s and 40s of the twentieth century was ensnared by communist ideology.
