About this product
Product Information
In the early 1970s, Harry Mathews, then living in France, was commonly reputed to be a CIA agent--and so he decided to act the part. Part spellbinding thriller, part gag, this memoir documents Mathews's experiences as a would-be spy during the coup in Chile, Watergate, and the close of the Vietnam War, when various foreign agencies decided he would have to be liquidated....

Reviews
This is an honest account by someone (he seems at the time to have been a bit of a ne'er-do-well) who tried to play spy without knowing what the word meant and landed himself in boiling-hot water. The book, which is as exciting as any novel, proves a useful moral: leave this business to the pros., "It's outrageous that an educated man and a gifted writer like Mr. Mathews could make such a public confession of such shameful activities."--Q. Kuhlmann, author of The Eye of Anguish: Subversive Activity in the German Democratic Republic, "So what you have at the end of the day is a book that's easy to like, an unusual pleasure: an American expatriate spy fantasy, and a very entertaining novel. Of course it is a novel. Right?" -- New York Times, "So what you have at the end of the day is a book that's easy to like, an unusual pleasure: an American expatriate spy fantasy, and a very entertaining novel. Of course it is a novel. Right?"--New York Times, "It's outrageous that an educated man and a gifted writer like Mr. Mathews could make such a public confession of such shameful activities."-Q. Kuhlmann, author of The Eye of Anguish: Subversive Activity in the German Democratic Republic, "Harry Mathews is the only American author I know whose utter originality does not erode his heart and his content." -- Ned Rorem "One of the most remarkable prose stylists presently writing in English." -- San Francisco Chronicle "It's outrageous that an educated man and a gifted writer like Mr. Mathews could make such a public confession of such shameful activities." -- Q. Kuhlmann, author of The Eye of Anguish: Subversive Activity in the German Democratic Republic
