Description
Ernest Hemingway, Lillian Hellman, Andre Malraux, Maxim Gorky, Andre Gide, and Arthur Koestler are among a host of literary and academic intellectuals who were targets for the Soviet Union's mighty propaganda machine. In this meticulous the subterranean role of Stalin's propaganda agents is explored in depth for the first time. Led by the legendary Willi Munzenberg, they played a key part in recruiting and manipulating the best among Western intellectuals, duping them into supporting various causes of the Soviet Union.
