From a supposed Polish secret service agent passing Soviet secrets to the West, to the Portland Spy Ring where KGB 'illegals' operated under false identities stolen from the dead. Tate's The Spy Who Was Left Out in the Cold draws on a wealth of previously unpublished primary sources to tell the dramatic true story of Michal Goleniewski, the best spy the West ever lost. Barnes' Dead Doubles explores a case that justified the West's paranoia about infiltration and treachery. Graeme MacRae Burnet: Case Study (Saturday 2nd October at 4:00pm) London, 1965. An unworldly young woman believes that a charismatic psychotherapist, Collins Braithwaite, has driven her sister to suicide. Intent on confirming her suspicions, she assumes a false identity and presents herself to him as a client, recording her experiences in a series of notebooks. In Case Study, Booker Prize-shortlisted novelist Graeme Macrae Burnet presents these notebooks interspersed with his own biographical research into Collins Braithwaite. The result is a dazzling meditation on the nature of sanity, identity and truth itself. Interview by The Telegraph book critic Jake Kerridge. Imran Mahmood & Jenn Ashworth: Lying Eyes – (Sunday 3rd October at 1:00pm) Join novelists Jenn Ashworth and Imran Mahmood as they discuss the role of unreliable narrators in fiction. Ashworth's Ghosted explores a deeply affecting and unconventional love story, shot through with anger, black humour and grief. Mahmood's I Know What I Saw is a thriller that centres on a now-homeless former banker who witnessed an impossible murder, and how the consequences of the crime force him to confront his vexed past and the unreliability of his memory. Interview by The Telegraph book critic Jake Kerridge. |
