Historia
When her boss tells her about the discoveries in a cramped, decrepit apartment in the ninth arrondissement, Sotheby' s continental furniture specialist April Vaught does not hear "dust" or "rats" or "shuttered for 70 years". She hears Paris. She hears escape. She cannot board the plane fast enough. When she arrives, April quickly learns the apartment is more than just some rich hoarder' s repository. Beneath the dust and cobwebs and stale perfumed air is a literal goldmine - and not just in terms of actual dollars.

Seemingly pointless
Revisado: 05-05-25
I gave it midway through chapter 25 to show some sort of reason for caring about any of the characters. I had to turn it off. While the journal passages from the past are of some interest, the modern day characters and their storyline lack in every way. The author is quite keen to stereotype “ugly Americans” in Paris frequently, which is more gratuitous than relevant to any part of the story. This book could have been good with its premise, but instead, it is pointless and tedious.

Historia
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 is under Sally's tutelage....

Just meh

First-excellent narration and will look for other titles with these narrators. I kept waiting for a crescendo which doesn’t happen, and left really not caring much for any of the flat fictional characters. Great coverage of Pasternak’s story though.
