So it's about a Russian spy training school. So it's almost like the show American, the Americans with Kerry Russell and the other guy. Matthew Rhys. Matthew Rhys, which is a terrific show. But this is even better than that. And it's just a great read. There's so many people writing thrillers now. Um, no one, and they all revere Nelson as, as just such a great inspiration to them.

Yeah. The next also by a friend. So this is different. This is a bit more of a literary work. Amor Tolles, I think, is one of the best writers working today. He's written a number of novels that people might recognize. A Gentleman in Moscow or Rules of Civility or Lincoln Highway. And a friend of yours. And a good friend. And just a terrific writer.

Oh, by the way, as you know, for writers whose work I respect, I like to get the hardcover first edition of the book. So this is the first edition of The Charm School by Nelson. It came out in 88. This is a more recent book by Amor. And it's one novella and a few short stories. It picks up on Eve, who is a character in... um, rules of civility. It's called even Hollywood and some short stories.
