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.
