Searching for Wallenberg: A Novel by Lelchuk, Alan mode NEUF

1. The Mystery about Wallenberg still persists:
SEARCHING FOR WALLENBERG by the critically acclaimed novelist, Alan Lelchuk explores the mysteries still surrounding Wallenberg. How and when did he die? Did he perhaps survive in some Gulag camp or psychiatric hospital? Why did he languish in a Soviet prison from 1945-1947 without being exchanged by the Swedish government-as other political prisoners in Europe were--or rescued by his very wealthy and well-connected family in Stockholm?

2. Lelchuk is the only researcher on Wallenberg to interview Wallenbergs
KGB interrogator--he spoke to no one else before he died:
During his writing of the novel Lelchuk engaged in wide research including travels to Stockholm, Budapest, and Moscow, where he interviewed historians, read documents and archives and visited physical sites. He also met with some of the few remaining witnesses, officials and participants including, most significantly, Wallenbergs KGB interrogator (Daniel Pagliansky) in Lybianka Prison in 1945-47-the first and only Westerner to interview this key character.

3. There are very few books about this important and mysterious Holocaust hero. Lelchuk spent five years researching nd writing his historical novel.
This account is the closest we have come to the "truth."
