Only the Dead Speak Russian

Only the Dead Speak Russian is brilliantly written by a veteran author whose captivating voice comes out at you from every pore of the story, as if issuing from a deeply involved presence. From Moscow, across Siberian tundra and at last, to Manhattan, the epic of Uri's and Valeria's flight from Revolutionary Russia and a parallel structure for possession of the mystic staff of Moses carry a magic that only Irving Greenfield could convey.
