Karpov's Brain

Book is tight, clean and unmarked-Edge wear on Jacket- " KGB agent Andrei Karpov heads a campaign to persecute Abram Levitch, a Russian Jew until a rare brain operation changes his attitude toward good and evil, freedom and tyranny-Karpov's brain is a novel about politics, anti-antisemitism, and pseudo-science in post-WWII Russia. Karpov is the brutally efficient KGB agent who, in a risky gamble to calm his paralyzing seizures, agrees to an experimental brain procedure from his former lover; Dr. Irina Tashenko. How will the surgery affect the already unstable Karpov? Will the Jewish dissidents survive the KGB's wrath? Will the beautiful but cold Tashenko escape Karpov's lecherous grasp? And what other plans does she have for? Karpov's Brain?-And yes, this novel is exactly as fun as these questions make it sound. So pass the brie and enjoy yourself."-Joe
