The Prodigal Spy
KANON, JOSEPH ISBN: 9780349112145 Abacus 2000 Good , 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.Review 'The Prodigal Spy is a mystery and a novel of ideas ... distinguished by a mastery of structure and a lucid style' - Allan Massie 'This is a beautifully written book' - Sunday Telegraph 'Kanon is a wonderfully fluent writer with a gift for honed dialogue' - Observer Edgar Award - winning Kanon (Los Alamos, 1997) returns with a Cold War spy tale. Opening with a chilling re-creation of the Red Scare days of the early 1950s, the story soon leads to the questioning of one Walter Kotlar by the House Un-American Activities Committee. Kotlar, as the reader knows instinctively, can't be a spy - but when a woman scheduled to testify before the committee is murdered, Kotlar enigmatically flees the country overnight, leaving behind his wife and confused young son, Nick. Not long after, he turns up on newsreels from Moscow as nothing less than a prize defector. Twenty years pass, until Nick is an embittered, restless Vietnam vet during the time of the Paris peace negotiations. His father's old boss, who married Nick's mother and adopted Nick, is one of the negotiators. This man meets Nick in England to settle some money on him, and almost simultaneously, mystery woman Molly Chisholm contacts Nick to tell him that his real father is living in Czechoslovakia, sick and desperate to see his son before he dies. But only Nick is exactly what he seems to be: Molly's actually a relative of the murdered woman from long ago; Walter Kotlar is indeed dying, but wants to return to the US to reveal what happened to cause his defection; and even Nick's stepfather may be a double-agent. Dodging spies and FBI agents on both sides of the Iron Curtain, Nick gradually assumes his father's mission, rooting out Reds and murderers at the highest levels of government. Even J. Edgar Hoover puts in an appearance. John le Carre and Graham Greene come to mind as the standard-bearers, though Kanon lacks the latter's high style and pitiless worldview. This time around, too, the love story that so distinguished Los Alamos seems contrived. Still, Kanon is very good. (Kirkus Reviews) One of the most original and striking novels of 1998 was Kanon's Los Alamos, a thriller set among the scientists working on the atomic bomb. His inspiration this time is the communist witch-hunts of the 1950s. The novel opens with an American, working for the Russians, prowling the corridors of Washington. Then we leap forward 19 years. The American has defected to the East and his son thinks he wants to return home. So he journeys to visit his father in Prague, where nothing is as it seems and the past is similarly unreliable. The problem for the espionage novel today is, of course, the end of the cold war. But as long as writers as accomplished as Kanon can create variations like this, the genre will remain in rude health. (Kirkus UK) Product Description Walter Kotlar is the epitome of the American dream, the son of working class immigrants who attends Yale and becomes part of the establishment, but he is caught up in the '50s fear of the 'red menace' and forced to testify before the Committee on Un-American Activities. He seems a very unlikely Communist, but before the hearing is concluded he has disappeared - defected to the East - though not before the chief witness has committed 'suicide'. 19 years later his son, Nick, receives a message that his father wants to see him in Prague. His first reaction is rejection and denial, but his memories and curiosity combined with a deep attraction for the messenger persuade him to risk the journey only a year after the Russian invasion. He discovers his father to be dying and eager to 'come home'. He learns too that the events preceding Walter's defection were not as simplistic as he'd thought, but before he can really work out what had happened his father is dead, probably murdered. Sure now that his father is more victim than villain, Nick knows he can only prove this in America, but he is stuck in a country where rules of evidence Price: 2.95 (AUD) Book Number: 19300 Bookseller: Lake Macquarie Secondhand Books Postage Rates |
