Does anyone know of any Soviet espionage novels? The big dumb war nerd in me is wondering if there’s a Soviet equivalent of Tom Clancy, like where someone from the KGB goes and convinces a US submarine to defect in order to prevent a nuclear attack on Cuba
Also a book by Yulian Semyonov.
Nothing else comes to mind, so uhh just read Tinker Tailor? I think Le Carre does a good job of making all these spies fuck around in their own world outside of the normie Cold War rah-rah Proud Western Man vs. Inscrutable Iron Curtain wankery.
