Reviews

A brilliant portrait of one of the most important American diplomats of the twentieth century. A man of immense charm, a friend and savior of Freud and his family in 1938, an admirer of Russia and witness to the horror of the purges, a figure turned into fiction by Bulgakov, Bullitt comes to life in Etkind’s remarkable book. Essential reading for all students of twentieth-century Europe and the European-American embrace."" - Jay Winter, Yale University

""Alexander Etkind is among the most fecund and original of cultural historians. Extraordinary lives like William Bullitt’s— deeply involved with Freud, Wilson, Lenin, Stalin, Kennan and Roosevelt— make extraordinary demands on their biographers. Etkind has more than met these demands in this wonderful volume."" - Eli Zaretsky, author of Political Freud
