SHORTLISTED FOR THE PUSHKIN HOUSE PRIZE

'The spy to end spies' JOHN LE CARRÉ

Born of a German father and a Russian mother, Richard Sorge moved in a world of shifting alliances and infinite possibility. In the years leading up to and during the Second World War, he became a fanatical communist – and the Soviet Union’s most formidable spy.

Combining charm with ruthless manipulation, he infiltrated and influenced the highest echelons of German, Chinese and Japanese society. His intelligence proved pivotal to the Soviet counter-offensive in the Battle of Moscow, which in turn determined the outcome of the war itself.

Drawing on a wealth of declassified Soviet archives, this is a major biography of one of the greatest spies who ever lived.©2019 Owen Matthews (P)2019 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

批評家のレビュー

A fascinating biography ... Owen Matthews tells the story of Sorge’s extraordinary life with tremendous verve and expertise and a real talent for mise en scène ... The portrait of Sorge himself that emerges is richly authentic (William Boyd)
Gloriously readable … Every chapter of Matthews’s superbly researched biography reads like something from an Eric Ambler thriller (Dominic Sandbrook)
A superb biography … More than a hundred books have been written about him and this is undoubtedly the best: detailed, wry, sympathetic and occasionally oddly moving (Ben Macintyre)
A vividly told story, thoroughly researched and well-crafted ... I love a thrilling spy story, especially one as superbly narrated as this, full of Bond-like drama about Sorge’s brushes with death, his love of fast cars and women ... A highly relevant book for today
Magnificently writtenAn Impeccable Spy is packed with humour and insight and all served up with a rare lightness of touch … Ben Macintyre and John le Carré fans alike will find themselves very much at home (Oliver Bullough)
Vivid and revealing ... Within a few pages, it is clear that An Impeccable Spy is going to be a very good read ... Better than any previous biography (Christopher Andrew)
A gripping human story with the complexity of a political thriller … An excellent history, which sheds new light on Sorge and his work. Unless something significant turns up about him in the German Nazi-era intelligence archives, it is likely to be the definitive work on him in English
Brilliant ... A clear-eyed, deeply researched and finely-judged portrait (Saul David)
[An] impressive biography … Matthews captures all the drama of Sorge’s story … The complexities of Soviet, German and Japanese politics and infighting of the time are skilfully navigated and the personalities brought vividly to life. With this book as our evidence, we can say that Sorge was an impeccable spy, and also that Matthews is an impeccable biographer (Vin Arthey)
Riveting ... An eye-rubbing story
Anyone praised by John le Carré deserves a meticulously researched and atmospheric biography such as Own Matthews’ An Impeccable Spy (Terry Philpot)
Riveting … Owen Matthews sticks to the facts and gives a vivid portrayal of the man and his times … A cut above (John Green)
