Publisher's Synopsis
A momentous manuscript, an agitated scientist, a beautiful Russian woman and Barley Blair - a derelict British publisher who becomes the unlikely recipient of the most vital defence secrets to come out of the Soviet Union in years...
In The Russia House , John le Carre brings the wets face to face with a unique Soviet landscape - the very human domain of glasnost and perestroika . He gives us a magnificent thriller, a love story, an ethical puzzle for our time and a chilling picture of cold warriors who continue to dance long after the music has stopped.
