Tento autor bol známy svojím autobiografickým dielom, ktoré detailne opisovalo jeho údajnú prácu tajného agenta a politické intrigy. Jeho písanie sa vyznačovalo surovou úprimnosťou a snahou odhaliť temnú stránku politických hnutí svojej doby. Jeho najznámejšia kniha, hoci neskôr označená za literárny podvod, vyvolala značný ohlas a prispela k debatám o sovietskych aktivitách v Európe. Neskôr sa venoval písaniu o vojnových skúsenostiach, čím podčiarkol svoj záujem o ľudské osudy v turbulentných časoch.
