Oswald in Minsk

[Dawn Meredith]

The book in question is Oswald: Russian Episode. The author is Professor Ernst P. Titovets, who was a medical student when he met LHO. According to the back cover blurbs on my signed copy, LHO described him in the "historic diary" as "my oldest existing acquaintance ... a friend of mine who speaks English very well." Both Edward Epstein and Norman Mailer have confirmed this characterization -- for whatever that's worth. The book is published by Mon Litera, located in ... wait for it ... Minsk.

I haven't read it yet, but when I do it will be with my deep politics radar on "HIGH" setting.

BTW, Robert Webster told a personal acquaintance of mine -- one of his care givers in a New England medical facility during the 1970s -- that Marina had been his wife.

Several months ago someone called me out of the blue asking if he could send me a copy of this book. Not wishing to offend I said yes. So I too have a copy but have not read it. I was waiting for some reviews before I dived in as it instinctively struck me as a disinfo book.
