	Description:		In 1946, the Russians launched a covert operation to steal America's atomic secrets, called "Operation Enormoz.” In 2016 they launched a covert operation to steal the U.S. presidential election, called "The Translator Project.” In his book In the Enemy’s House: The Hunt for the Spies Who Changed the World journalist Howard Blum argues that to understand what is happening today, we need to go back to the beginnings of the Russian clandestine war in America. In the Enemy's House returns to the beginnings of Russian intervention in American affairs and examines those implications for today. Howard Blum will be in conversation with Tim Weiner on Wednesday, March 7th from 6:30-8:30 pm at the Mid-Manhattan Library on 476 5th Avenue (42nd Street & 5th Avenue). This segment is guest hosted by Arun Venugopal.
