The World at Night

by Alan Furst


Review this book!

This richly atmospheric and often heart-pounding literary thriller--one of Alan Furst's best--takes place in occupied France during World War II. The tense story involves a second-rate movie producer who becomes a double agent, the beautiful actress whom he loves, and questions of loyalty and betrayal.

Media Reviews

"[C]ombines so much broad historical erudition with such genuine humanity that it ought to be made required reading. Once again, Furst loads the entire burden of an aspect of the war on the shoulders of a single character, then scrutinizes that character as he changes. It's the old rat-in-the-maze game, played for very high stakes....Furst has somehow discovered the perfect venue for uniting the European literary tragedy with the Anglo-American spy thriller. Nobody does it better."
