Publisher's Note
Blending fact and fiction, this inventive novel recreates the life of Harry Gold, a real-life chemist who became a Soviet spy, following his life from the 1930s through the McCarthy era and Gold's eventual espionage at Los Alamos. Reprint.

Industry reviews
"If Samuel Beckett ever wrote a spy story, it might read a lot like this one. Dillon's novel is haunted by the same corrosive absurdity that permeates WAITING FOR GODOT. On page after page, one seeks for some human meaning behind Gold's drab charade. But as Dillon tells the tale, there is no meaning to be found. Gold's life is the biography of a zombie."
Pierce 

"HARRY GOLD is a fascinating and original book. It answers few questions and asks many good ones. Yet it would have been a better and more interesting novel if the biographer had been less inclined to interfere with the novelist's freedom to tell a good--even if not necessarily true--story."
New York Times Book Review - Elena Lappin (07/30/2000)
