Leonid Eitingon was a KGB assassin who dedicated his life to the Soviet regime. He was in China in the early 1920s, in Turkey in the late 1920s, in Spain during the Civil War, and, crucially, in Mexico, helping to organize the assassination of Trotsky. âAs long as I live,â Stalin said, ânot a hair of his head shall be touched.â It did not work out like that.
Max Eitingon was a psychoanalyst, a colleague, friend and protĂ©gĂ© of Freudâs. He was rich, secretive andâthrough his friendship with a famous Russian singerâ implicated in the abduction of a white Russian general in Paris in 1937. Motty Eitingon was a New York fur dealer whose connections with the Soviet Union made him the largest trader in the world. Imprisoned by the Bolsheviks, questioned by the FBI. Was Motty everybodyâs friend or everybodyâs enemy?
Mary-Kay Wilmers, best known as the editor of the London Review of Books, began looking into aspects of her remarkable family twenty years ago. The result is a book of astonishing scope and thrilling originality that throws light into some of the darkest corners of the last century. At the center of the story stands the author herselfâironic, precise, searching, and stylishâwondering not only about where she is from, but about what sheâs entitled to know.
