Confession of a Murderer — Joseph Roth
An exiled Russian spy shares his dramatic life story from a Paris restaurant in this novel by the author of The Radetzky March.
In a Russian restaurant on Paris's Left Bank, Russian exile Golubchik alternately fascinates and horrifies a rapt audience with a wild story of collaboration, deception, and murder in the days leading up to the Russian Revolution.
Praise for Confession of a Murderer
“Worthy to sit beside Conrad's and Dostoevsky's excursions into the twisted world of secret agents. Joseph Roth is one of the great writers in German of this century; and this novel is a fine introduction to this view of intrigue, necessity, and moral doubt.” -- The Times (London)
