Reviews
"[Miranda Carter] has created a fascinating portrait of that most anomalous of career hyphenates: the art scholar-spy, a portrait that should go down as one of the most informative and compelling books yet on the Cambridge spies." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "British journalist Carter limns the complex life and fascinating times of the eminent art historian best known for being exposed in 1979 as a former Soviet spy . . . Many books recount Blunt's espiona≥ this one is a complete biography that does him justice. --Kirkus Reviews, Stared Review "[An] outstanding new biography . . . As deliciously picturesque as a Merchant-Ivory film plotted by John le CarrÉ." --Daniel Kunitz, The Wall Street Journal "Miranda Carter's finely researched biography shows [how] Blunt . . . composed for himself a persona of often chilling elegance, a master of the arcana of art history, an inspiring teacher who mesmerized students and audiences at large, Blunt led masked lives which were to ripen to abjection." --George Steiner, TLS "The English have a peculiarly ambivalent relationship with treason . . . [Carter] had a unique degree of access to Blunt's papers, and has interviewed, and quotes tellingly from, scores of people who knew him well. She tells his tragic story with a lucid fair-mindedness and . . . authority." --Jeremy Treglown, The New York Times Book Review "Compelling . . . Miranda Carter's skill at scouring the different compartments of Blunt's life is deeply impressive." --Julian Barnes, The New Yorker
