The Aquarium is the first and one of a kind book about one of the most powerful and most closed intelligence organizations in the world, a classic example of an action -packed spy novel, which captures from the very first lines and is read by binge, in one breath. This is a frank story about how the Soviet totalitarian system was arranged, based on the bestial thirst for power and grinding human destinies for the sake of those who reached power and revel in it. "Aquarium" is the story of a person who has passed all the circles of hell in this inhuman system and escaped from it.
Viktor Suvorov about his book "Aquarium"
The exposures are looking for - and find - inconsistencies in the biographies of Viktor Suvorov and Vladimir Rezun. You are trying in vain, citizens - there should not have been conformity. If I accurately called the names, places and dates, it would be meanness in relation to my comrades, colleagues commanders. Therefore, I shifted the narrative in place and time, changed the names. In my books, I completely consciously worked "to lower".
In the "aquarium", Viktor Suvorov at the age of fifteen works on the collective farm and trades with watermelons in the bazaar, and from the age of 11, Vladimir Rezun was prepared in special military educational institutions.
Viktor Suvorov served in the headquarters of the Carpathian Military District, and Vladimir Rezun at the headquarters of Volzhsky, in the secret reserve capital of the Soviet Union.
Viktor Suvorov got into the nomenclature of the Central Committee as a senior lieutenant, and the agent Rezun was still a lieutenant, having broken all the records.
In the "Aquarium", I mentioned one line of a ringing girl from the control group, but in the life of Rezun the matter was not limited to this.
All graduates of the First Faculty of the Military Diplomatic Academy are on at least one year of training in different GRU departments. Viktor Suvorov also passed through that year, and in real life I got to combat work abroad the very first of the entire release, bypassing this year of additional preparation.
Viktor Suvorov worked in Vienna - in the second most important center of world espionage, and Rezun in Geneva, in the first center, in his main capital.
In the "aquarium" I have one navigator, and in real life three residents were replaced by: two smart ones, the third is not very good. When a few years after all that happened, this third died, none of the GRU came to bury him, although he was Major General. He was fiercely hated by everyone - both bosses and subordinates. He earned striped pants only because his brother was an assistant to Comrade Brezhnev. This smart man in general pants grew up in the high offices of Moscow, and his first position abroad, the highest of all possible, is a resident of the GRU in Geneva. He failed everything that could be failed. I did not begin to give out my book. And he never explained the real reasons for leaving.
Viktor Suvorov fled alone from Austria, Vladimir Rezun - with his wife and small children and from Switzerland.
What am I? To the fact that the "stories of the Liberator" and the "Aquarium were written and published during the time of comrades Brezhnev and Andropov, when the Union of the indestructible republics of the free was great and mighty, when few believed that he would not be soon. "Aquarium" - not about me, not about my adventures, but about how military intelligence from the battalion and above, to the most important residencies. And I had two ways.
The first: to call everyone with whom it fell to serve by names, and break a lot of fate.
Second: Change all names, starting with your own, move the action in time and space. He showed particular caution when it came to agents. Please note that after my departure there was not a single spy process. No one was arrested and convicted.
Maybe I worked badly and did not know anything? The one who works poorly in strategic intelligence intelligence after the first year. I left the full time of the business trip, all three years. As an exception, he was left in the fourth year, in the form of a special exception - to the fifth.
In order not to cause inconvenience to anyone, I called myself a strange name and decided to never reveal the pseudonym. For the first time, I was revealed by the chief of the GRU Army General V. M. Mikhailov. In an interview with the newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda from August 23-31, 1991, he said: "The real name of the author [" Aquarium "] - Rezun. This is our colonel who escaped to England 11-12 years ago. " (Interestingly, six months after this publication, the new chief of the GRU Colonel General E. L. Timokhin called me a major, and a year and a half later a former resident of the GRU in Geneva, Captain of the 1st rank Valery Kalinin called me a captain. There is a trend. If so It will continue, after some time in the press, the former junior cipher of the Geneva residency will probably perform and call me a corporal)
