Amor Towles:
I have an odd question for you. Are you friends with the author Blake Crouch? He has a minor character in his newest book 'Recursion' named Amor Towles. I was lying in bed listening to Recursion on audio when your name came up, I sat bolt upright in surprise. Just wondering...

Mary,
I am indeed a friend of Blake's. I was quite honored to appear in his terrific novel, Recursion - at least until my character was murdered...

Amor Towles:
Dear Sir, I'm afraid some of the realities you describe in your book Gentleman in Moscow didn't exist. There were no officers ranks in the Red Army in 1918, also NKVD didn't exist at this time. There were CheKa (Extraordinary Commission) and GPU (Chief Political Directorate) later on. Vyshinski in 1918 was a nobody. And I doubt that CheKa members would adress anyone as a "count". Would you care to comment?
