“WHAT DID YOU DO IN THE COLD WAR, DADDY?”
or “CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE KGB KIND.”
By Tom Sewell, MA (now available)
An account of Tom and Jennifer’s life behind the Iron Curtain
Sir Rodric Braithwaite GCMG British Ambassador in Moscow, 1988-92, writes
“Tom Sewell paints a vivid picture of the grandeur and misery of dealing
with the Soviet Union and its servants during the Cold War – the petty but
dangerous attentions of the KGB, the poverty of the country, and the open
generosity of the people when you were able to worm your way through the
barriers with which the state surrounded them.”
