Buchbeschreibung Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 263, [1] pages. DJ has wear, tears, soiling and chips. Inscribed on title page. Inscription signed by author reads: For Luke Albee--Well-known Vermont Guide. Pat Breslin August, 1983. Luke Albee was the former Chief of Staff to Senator Pat Leahy of Vermont. A Cold War Novel of Love and Death. To millions of Chileans the socialist government of Salvador Allende meant reform, justice, and progress. But to the U.S. State Department it represented a defeat and a threat. In collusion with opposition interests, the Americans engaged in a covert campaign to subvert Allende's regime. Paul Steward's job is to gather intelligence--more bluntly, to spy--on Chile's leftists. The disillusioned agent's assignment is a better one than his record warrants, but it's also his last chance to salvage a once-promising career. As an idealistic Peace Corps volunteer, he had had an affair with beautiful Marisa Caseaux, a young Chilean artist studying in the States. The enthusiastic, hopeful American has drifted into a weary, bitter cynicism, and the sensitive Chilean artist has drifted leftwards into a CIA dossier. As events move inexorably toward Allende's fall, a noose tightens around Steward's battered conscience. Interventions is a novel worthy of Graham Greene, the tale of a man in bondage to a morally bankrupt policy, and of his desperate, tragic attempt to reconcile personal loyalty with the politics of betrayal. Interventions is a novel worthy of Graham Greene, the tale of a man in bondage to a morally bankrupt policy, and of his desperate, tragic attempt to reconcile personal loyalty with the politics of betrayal. The author at one time served in the Peace Corps. He was also in Chile during the military coup which overthrew Allende and wrote frequently for journals and periodicals about the country and its political situation. Senator Leahy has served on the Committee on Appropriations subcommittee on State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs and as such would have interests in events in Chile. As this copy was inscribed to the Senator's former Chief of Staff during a time when Albee was on the Senator's personal staff. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing.
