Hello, a quick note to recommend The Company: A Novel Of The CIA, by Robert Littell. Very well written, funny, no cliches, covering certain events since the Berlin Station during the Cold War to … well, can’t tell you or will spoil the read. Even despicable characters are given a chance to redeem themselves, making them humane in spite of their vices and warped ideas about what the world should look like. Anyone read Mother Russia by Littell? I liked this one so much I am considering getting that one, too. Leonardo
