Inventor of the ethereal, musical theremin, Termen performed in the gilded concert halls of Russia and Europe to rapturous applause. The toast of the Soviet Union, he was sent to New York with a plan to infiltrate capitalism itself, to win its heart and capture its secrets.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBut instead, Manhattan infiltrates Termen and in the city of dreams he rubs shoulders with Gershwin and Rachmaninoff, the Rockefellers and the Astors, Charlie Chaplin and Glenn Miller, and dances night after night with the beautiful young violinist Clara Rockmore. But when his spy games fall apart and he is forced to return home, he finds the Motherland not quite as he left it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExiled to a Siberian Gulag, with nothing but his wits to keep him alive, Termen is drawn ever deeper into the labyrinth of Stalin's Russia, where only his feelings for Clara, passing through the ether like the theremin's song, seem to show a way out.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eBook Information:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished: 29\/07\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Historical Fiction, Russia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePages: 347\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 234 x 154mm\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #c00000;\"\u003eNote: Remaindered books or remainders are printed books that are over stocks and are sold at reduced prices.
