Alan Furst is an American author of historical spy novels set just prior to and during the Second World War.

Before becoming a full-time novelist, Furst worked in advertising and as a magazine article writer (not, according to Furst himself, as a “journalist”, as has often been reported), most notably for “Esquire,” and as a columnist for the “International Herald Tribune.” The 1988 publication of “Night Soldiers” revitalised his career and the genre of spy novels. Furst’s novels have been particularly successful in evoking the cities and characters of Eastern Europe during the period from 1933 to 1944.
