‎Moscow 1956 the Silenced Spring‎

‎8vo hardcover in Dust Jacket Condition. 448 pp. 28 halftones. "Joseph Stalin had been dead for three years when his successor, Nikita Khrushchev, stunned a closed gathering of Communist officials with a litany of his predecessor’s abuses. Meant to clear the way for reform from above, Khrushchev’s “Secret Speech” of February 25, 1956, shattered the myth of Stalin’s infallibility. In a bid to rejuvenate the Party, Khrushchev had his report read out loud to members across the Soviet Union that spring. However, its message sparked popular demands for more information and greater freedom to debate. Moscow 1956: The Silenced Spring brings this first brief season of thaw into fresh focus. Drawing on newly declassified Russian archives, Kathleen Smith offers a month-by-month reconstruction of events as the official process of de-Stalinization unfolded and political and cultural experimentation flourished. Smith looks at writers, students, scientists, former gulag prisoners, and free-thinkers who took Khrushchev’s promise of liberalization seriously, testing the limits of a more open Soviet system. But when anti-Stalin sentiment morphed into calls for democratic reform and eventually erupted in dissent within the Soviet bloc—notably in the Hungarian uprising—the Party balked and attacked critics. Yet Khrushchev had irreversibly opened his compatriots’ eyes to the flaws of monopolistic rule. Citizens took the Secret Speech as inspiration and permission to opine on how to restore justice and build a better society, and the new crackdown only reinforced their discontent. The events of 1956 set in motion a cycle of reform and retrenchment that would recur until the Soviet Union’s collapse in 1991.".‎

‎HAVANA BAY A HAMMETT AWARD WINNER‎

‎N.Y.: Random House 1999. 1st ed. Fine in dust jacket. Renko is in Cuba and not likeing it one little bit. A HAMMETT AWARD WINNER for Best Novel. "The body at least what was left of it was drifting in Havana Bay the morning Arkady arrived from Moscow. Only the day before he had received an urgent message from the Russian embassy in Havana that his friend Pribluda was missing and asking that he come. The Cubans insisted that this corpse floating in an inner tube was Pribluda but Arkady wasn't so sure. "You don't investigate assault you don't investigate murder. Just what do you investigate" Arkady asks Ofelia Osorio a detective in the Policía Nacional de la Revolución. "Or is it simply open season on Russians in Havana" The comrades of the Cold War have parted bitterly and the Russians who used to swarm through Havana's streets are now as rare as they are despised much more so than Americans. Havana is overrun with color music and suspicion. The Revolution's heroes have outlived idealism. The Com-munist world has shrunk to Cuba. Paradise has become a stop on sex tours. It is a city of empty stores and talking drums Karl Marx and sharp machetes where an American radical rides around in Hemingway's car to tout island investments and a Wall Street developer on the run from the FBI flies a pirate flag. "A dead Russian a live Russian" Ofelia says. "What's the difference" But the dead Russian is followed by the murders of a Cuban boxer and a prostitute. Although none of them is supposed to be investigated Arkady cannot be stopped. He speaks no Spanish knows nothing about Cuba and as a Russian is a pariah. However there is something about this faded lovely dangerous city--the rhythms of waves against the seawall the insinuation of music always in the air and finally Ofelia herself--that plunges Arkady back into life." dust jacket.

‎RED SQUARE‎

‎New York NY U.S.A.: Random House 1992. 1st edition so stated. Near fine in very lightly soiled dust jacket. . An Inspector Arkady Renko title. Moscow. The Soviet upheavals have fueled the glowing talent of Smith Gorky Park America's preeminent writer of Russia-based thrillers. Investigator Arkady Renko returns from exile on the Polar Star fleet to find the new Moscow a dramatic battlefield of warlords and entrepreneurs; behind it as still as a painted backdrop eight million people standing in line. An ingenious bomb kills Renko's informer the banker for freewheeling black marketeers-leading Arkady's team through the quicksand of mafia-dominated official graft. His workaholic forensics expert Polina who must wait in line for morgue time as well as for beets identifies the bomb method leading Arkady too close for aparatchik comfort. He is bumped from the case but only after a clue from the dead man's fax Where is Red Square points him toward a Munich connection. Meanwhile he is stunned to hear his lost love Irina on Munichbased Radio Liberty and with his last bit of clout wrangles a barely official trip to Germany. His mastery of the Russian system stymies the Munich embassy and reunites him with Irina in the midst of nasty fellow citizens bent on national theft. With vital aid from a Munich cop Arkady links the fax clue to Russian bureaucrats the ethnic Checken mafia and German bankers. The novel paints the new post-Soviet aura through the stoic hero's wry humor and leaves Arkady and Irina perfectly poised like Russia itself for whatever comes next." -- Publishers Weekly.
