36 Yalta Boulevard
The Confession
The Bridge of Sighs
Far from being an expert on the Armenian genocide, I’ve taken details from an expert, Peter Balakian, whose book,
The Burning Tigris,
is a sober, comprehensive, and deeply affecting resource on this bleak moment in world history.
The brief chronicle of Soviet investigations into parapsychology is primarily taken from “Amplified Mind Power Research In The Former Soviet Union,” a paper by another expert, Martin Ebon. It can be found online.
As this is a work of fiction, I need not mention this, but I will: To my knowledge, no one connected to the Union Church of Istanbul has ever acted to support the cause of World Proletarian Revolution. I thank the church for allowing me to wander inside its lovely chapel.
None of this would have been possible without Slavica, who keeps me warm, happy, and sane.
This is a work of fiction. All of the characters, organizations, and events portrayed in this novel are either products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously.
