“The best true spy story I have ever read.”—JOHN LE CARRÉ
The celebrated author of Double Cross and Rogue Heroes returns with his greatest spy story yet, a thrilling Americans-era tale of Oleg Gordievsky, the Russian whose secret work helped hasten the end of the Cold War.
If anyone could be considered a Russian counterpart to the infamous British double-agent Kim Philby, it was Oleg Gordievsky. The son of two KGB agents and the product of the best Soviet institutions, the savvy, sophisticated Gordievsky grew to see his nation's communism as both criminal and philistine. He took his first posting for Russian intelligence in 1968 and eventually became the Soviet Union's top man in London, but from 1973 on he was secretly working for MI6. For nearly a decade, as the Cold War reached its twilight, Gordievsky helped the West turn the tables on the KGB, exposing Russian spies and helping to foil countless intelligence plots, as the Soviet leadership grew increasingly paranoid at the United States's nuclear first-strike capabilities and brought the world closer to the brink of war. Desperate to keep the circle of trust close, MI6 never revealed Gordievsky's name to its counterparts in the CIA, which in turn grew obsessed with figuring out the identity of Britain's obviously top-level source. Their obsession ultimately doomed Gordievsky: the CIA officer assigned to identify him was none other than Aldrich Ames, the man who would become infamous for secretly spying for the Soviets.
Unfolding the delicious three-way gamesmanship between America, Britain, and the Soviet Union, and culminating in the gripping cinematic beat-by-beat of Gordievsky's nail-biting escape from Moscow in 1985, Ben Macintyre's latest may be his best yet. Like the greatest novels of John le Carré, it brings readers deep into a world of treachery and betrayal, where the lines bleed between the personal and the professional, and one man's hatred of communism had the power to change the future of nations.

At 1:30 in the afternoon, 3:30 in Russia, Goodall, a devout Roman Catholic, looked at his watch and declared: “Ladies and gentlemen, they should be crossing the border around now. I think it would be appropriate to say a small prayer.” The half-dozen officials bowed their heads. (查看原文)
Gordievsky had secretly detested all that his father stood for—the blind obedience to a cruel ideology and the cowardice of the Homo Sovieticus. But he had also loved the old man, and even respected his obstinacy, a trait they shared. Between father and son, love and deception ran in tandem. (查看原文)

这几年读过的最佳纪实文学。文艺青年弃暗投明搅局大国博弈。主角两任夫人，MI6营救行动策划人，两个大使夫人，还有撒切尔夫人压阵，女性角色完全占据多半边天。现在美剧英剧这大女主形势下，BBC, HBO还不赶紧翻拍吗？

读的期间一直忍着没搜书本条目，虽然后来被内页插图图说剧透一脸，但读后半部分的时候依然紧张到无法呼吸。Gordievsky和Leila的结局也丝毫不令人意外。在他的视角里，妻子的职责是洗衣、打扫、做饭、育儿、提供情感慰藉，做男性的后盾是最佳品质，然后默默等待“救赎”。

真是一本好看的书！作者太会讲故事了，比小说还精彩刺激，也算是了解了更多冷战的相关信息，当然意识形态问题，尤其是最后两个间谍对比的时候感觉有点过了，但是，不论如何，好看的！
