Yakov Blumkin claimed to have had nine lives. He was a terrorist, the assassin of the German ambassador Wilhelm von Mirbach, a poet close to the avant-garde, a member of Cheka, a military strategist, a secret agent, and Leon Trotsky's secretary. Executed in 1929 on the orders of Stalin at the age of twenty-nine, he has continued to inspire a powerful curiosity, and wild rumors and falsehoods about his extraordinary life abound today. With a trove of manuscripts, documents, rare photographs, and personal souvenirs, writer and researcher Christian Salmon sets out to reconstruct the shadowy past of this multifaceted figure"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a "A biographical novel"--Cover. 500 $a "Originally published in 2017 as Le projet Blumkine by EÌditions La DeÌcouverte, Paris"--Title page verso. 600 10 $a Bliï¸ u︡mkin, Iï¸ A︡kov Grigorʹevich, $d 1900-1929 $v Fiction. 610 20 $a Partiiï¸ a︡ levykh sotï¸ s︡ialistov-revoliï¸ u︡tï¸ s︡ionerov (Russia) $v Fiction. 610 10 $a Russian S.F.S.R. $b ChrezvychaiÌnaiï¸ a︡ komissiiï¸ a︡ po borʹbe s kontr-revoliï¸ u︡tï¸ s︡ieiÌ i sabotazhem $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Spy stories. 651 0 $a Soviet Union $x History $y 1917-1936 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Salmon, Christian, 1951- $t Blumkin project $d New York : Other Press, [2022] $z 9781635429978 $w (DLC) 2022012623 700 1 $a Rodarmor, William, $e translator. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117025108.0 952 $l NVPB663 $d 20230222010610.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8BC58232664511EDB99D19AA23ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
