520    A thrilling tale of secretaries turned spies, of love and 
       duty, and of sacrifice--inspired by the true story of the 
       CIA plot to infiltrate the hearts and minds of Soviet 
       Russia, not with propaganda, but with the greatest love 
       story of the twentieth century: Doctor Zhivago. 
520    At the height of the Cold War, two secretaries are pulled 
       out of the typing pool at the CIA and given the assignment
       of a lifetime. Their mission: to smuggle Doctor Zhivago 
       out of the USSR, where no one dare publish it, and help 
       Pasternak's magnum opus make its way into print around the
       world. Glamorous and sophisticated Sally Forrester is a 
       seasoned spy who has honed her gift for deceit all over 
       the world--using her magnetism and charm to pry secrets 
       out of powerful men. Irina is a complete novice, and under
       Sally's tutelage quickly learns how to blend in, make 
       drops, and invisibly ferry classified documents.  The 
       Secrets We Kept combines a legendary literary love story--
       the decades-long affair between Pasternak and his mistress
       and muse, Olga Ivinskaya, who was sent to the Gulag and 
       inspired Zhivago's heroine, Lara--with a narrative about 
       two women empowered to lead lives of extraordinary 
       intrigue and risk. From Pasternak's country estate outside
       Moscow to the brutalities of the Gulag, from Washington, 
       D.C. to Paris and Milan, The Secrets We Kept captures a 
       watershed moment in the history of literature--told with 
       soaring emotional intensity and captivating historical 
       detail. And at the center of this unforgettable debut is 
       the powerful belief that a piece of art can change the 
       world.
