Cold Warriors

Writers Who Waged the Literary Cold War

Duncan White

The CIA dropping copies of Animal Farm into Poland sounds fanciful in the age of email and Twitter, but the printed word was used – promoted,  censored or silenced – by both sides during the Cold War. Duncan White’s literary history of the period from the 1930s to 1991, tells the stories of the writers who found themselves locked into this dangerous conflict, among them Orwell, Greene, Akhmatova and Solzhenitsyn in the USSR, and Koestler and Le Carré in Berlin.
