Author inscription on the title page reads To Chris Best Wishes Pete Earley. Traces the story of the double agent who headed Russia's post-Cold War spy program in America, documenting his role in directing spy operations in New York City, recruiting and planting agents, manipulating intelligence, and influencing national policy before his astonishing defection. Pete Earley (born September 5, 1951) is an American journalist and author who has written non-fiction books and novels. Earley became a Washington Post reporter and also wrote books about the Aldrich Ames and John Walker espionage cases. His book Circumstantial Evidence: Death, Life, and Justice in a Southern Town (1995), about the wrongful conviction of Walter McMillian in Alabama, won an Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America for Best Fact Crime Book in 1996. His book about the John Walker spy ring, Family of Spies, was a New York Times bestseller. It was adapted as a CBS miniseries starring Powers Boothe and Lesley Ann Warren. In 2007, Earley was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize for his book Crazy: A Father's Search Through America's Mental Health Madness, about a man seeking help for his son. His 2008 book, Comrade J, is about Russian SVR defector Sergei Tretyakov. Colonel Sergei Olegovich Tretyakov (5 October 1956 - 13 June 2010) was a Russian SVR (foreign intelligence) officer, who defected to the United States in October 2000. Tretyakov was a career KGB/SVR officer. Before being posted in New York, he worked in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Starting in 1995, he worked in New York in the position of SVR deputy rezident (station chief) under the diplomatic cover of first secretary at Russia's mission at the United Nations. It was later revealed that Tretyakov was a double agent, passing secrets to Washington, from around 1997. He was reported to have been close to Sergey Lavrov, Russia's UN mission head. Upon defection, Tretyakov was debriefed by the Central Intelligence Agency and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He was given one of the largest US financial packages ever for a foreign defector, over US$2 million, and was resettled, along with his family, with a new name in an unknown location. In January 2008, Tretyakov gave several interviews to publicize a book of his experiences, Comrade J.: The Untold Secrets of Russia's Master Spy in America after the End of the Cold War, written by journalist Pete Earley. Earley first met Tretyakov through an FBI contact at the Ritz-Carlton in Tysons Corner, Virginia; two FBI agents and two CIA were assigned to Tretyakov as an escort. The SVR responded to the book's release by calling it "self-publicity based on treachery." When promoting his book, Tretyakov said that Russian intelligence was just as active now as in Cold War times, adding that he hoped his book would act as a "wake-up call" to Americans. Derived from a Kirkus review: From 1995 to 2000, Sergei Tretyakov ran Russia's day-to-day intelligence operations in New York and personally directed every covert operation launched in the city against the United States. At the end of 2000 he defected, then later sat down with investigative journalist and novelist Earley to tell this story. Recruited in the 1980s, Tretyakov reveals intriguing behind-the-scenes mechanics of KGB politics, personalities and nuts-and-bolts operation techniques. The foreign-intelligence section did not persecute dissidents inside the USSR, so readers will identify with Tretyakov as he works hard, rises through the ranks and is rewarded with plum assignments in Canada and the United States. Most engrossing are the details of intelligence gathering which he describes, even naming names. Spies were essential, but so were "informational contacts," academics and bureaucrats who enjoyed chatting and could be manipulated to reveal more than they should. More disturbing is the fact that America's increasing unpopularity persuaded many foreign officials who don't consider themselves traitors to pass on damaging secrets simply because they disliked the United States. Earley presents a vivid picture of the shambles that followed the USSR's 1991 collapse. Tretyakov portrays the leaders as wildly corrupt kleptocrats who were looting the nation to enrich their cronies. An elite force, the intelligence service escaped the general impoverishment but suffered a massive exodus of talent anxious to share the booty. Disgusted at his government and the increasing venality of superiors, Tretyakov began considering his options, but readers will learn few details of his defection, which he was forbidden to discuss. Earley reminds us that Tretyakov is no objective observerâ"he leans over backward to say nasty things about Russia while flattering America and himself. Keeping this in mind, readers will encounter plenty of juicy details about Russian intelligence, which still considers America the enemy.

Sergei Mikhailovich Tretyakov (Russian: ??????? ??????????? ??????????; 20 June 1892, Goldingen, Courland Governorate, Russian Empire (today Kuld?ga, Latvia) - September 10, 1937.Sergei Tretyakov's now-famous writings about Asia?works such as Roar China (the 1924poem and 1926 play) and Den Shi-khua (1927)?sought to break from Western exoticism and chinoiserie.However, there has been scholarly debate about whether he, in fact, reinforced Eurocentric views of Asia,for instance, by depicting Chinese laborers using a naturalist rather than avant-gardist aesthetic. This talkweighs in on this debate by turning to Tretyakov's earlier depictions of other Asians, namely the Japaneseand Koreans that he encountered in Vladivostok in the early 1920s, prior to his first visit to China. I willfocus on feuilleton pieces he wrote using such "Asian" pennames as "Tiutiun" and "Zhen'Shen'", as wellas representations of Asia in the futurist journal Tvorchestvo (Creation), which he co-founded. Particularattention will be paid to his attempts at agitational tanka poetry and their use of Japanese language, whichI consider in relation to a larger tradition of modernist orientalism (e.g., Ezra Pound's and SergeiEisenstein's engagement with Chinese language). What I find is a Tretyakov still drawn to exoticism andthe estranging possibilities of non-European languages, resulting in aesthetically innovative work with littleof his later obsession with ethnographic fidelity. His interest in overcoming linguistic and cross-culturalmediation would arise only after his visits to China, as well as his service in the Education Ministry of theshort-lived Far Eastern Rep.Provenance: From the collection of Alma Law, the American scholar of the Russian theater.…
