Charlotte Philby's latest novel tells the story of her grandfather, Kim Philby, the notorious double-agent in the Cambridge spy ring. Edith and Kim is her fourth novel, and tells the linked stories of her grandfather and Edith Tudor-Hart, the Vienna-born photographer and Communist agent who recommended Kim Philby for recruitment by the KGB. Charlotte Philby's father was a child when her grandfather defected. He tracked him down in Moscow years later, and as a five year old, Charlotte went on a family visit to Kim in Russia. She says initially she didn't want to write about Kim Philby because she didn't want to define herself through his life. But after years of having other people project versions of her grandfather, the time has come to reclaim the story.

Today, we bring you a spy author interview. Spybrary hosts Shane Whaley and Peter Newman find out more about Charlotte Philby's latest novel, Edith and Kim. Charlotte also shares memories of her grandfather, Kim Philby, and reveals some interesting responses in the world-famous Spybrary Quickfire Round!

In June 1934, Kim Philby met his Soviet handler, the spy Arnold Deutsch. Kim Philby was a British intelligence officer and a double agent for the Soviet Union. In 1963 he was revealed to be a member of the Cambridge Five, a spy ring that had divulged British secrets to the Soviets during World War II and in the early stages of the Cold War.The woman who introduced Philby to Deutsch was  Edith Tudor-Hart and her story has never been told.Edith Tudor Hart changed the course of 20th-century history. Then she was written out of it.I speak with Charlotte Philby, granddaughter of Kim Philby.  Charlotte has written "Edith and Kim" which draws on the Secret Intelligence Files on Edith Tudor Hart, along with the private archive letters of Kim Philby. This finely worked, evocative and beautifully tense novel tells, for the first time, the story of the woman behind the Third Man.We also hear from Charlotte what it was like having Kim Philby as her grandfather, including details of visits to see him in Moscow during the Cold War. It's a fascinating insight into one of the most notorious spies of the Cold War. Now, this podcast relies on your support to enable me to continue to capture these incredible stories and make them available to you.If you'd like to continue to hear the podcast and help preserve Cold War history, you can support me via one off or monthly donations.Just go to https://coldwarconversations.com/donate/ for more details. If a financial contribution is not your cup of tea, then you can still help us by leaving written reviews wherever you listen to us as well as sharing us on social media.

Already a successful journalist, Charlotte Philby has just published her debut novel, the psychological thriller The Most Difficult Thing. It should come with a warning sticker: you won't be able to put it down. I absolutely loved it and devoured it in one sitting. It's set between London and Greece, and combines suspense with loads of family drama and a dash of glamour. We talk about this - as well as how she feels like her career has been a series of failures, the messy truth behind external “success”, and what it is like growing up when your grandfather is Kim Philby, one of the most significant double agents in modern history.

A little while back, we asked you some questions about posting photos. Do you post pictures of your kids? Do your parents post photos of you? Why, why not? We thought maybe a couple hundred people would answer. But we struck a nerve. We got more than twelve hundred responses, with more than six hundred long-form answers (highlights here). You have strong feelings on this one. Feelings full of nuance and complexity, no surprise. This week, psychologist and author Guy Winch helps untangle our mixed posting emotions. He sees kids and adults, individuals and families in his private practice, and he has a new book, How to Fix a Broken Heart. Plus, Charlotte Philby, a mom whose family posts were part of her brand - until she stopped gramming cold turkey.
