ABSTRACT
The enforced intimacies, the hideous lack of privacy, gross stupidity of its rulers, the dreadful struggle with poverty, are all displayed passionately and with an imaginative power that the peoples expect from Romanov”. Others have been written by men and women who, like art young in the country, remain instinctively remote from the concrete battle of opinion. A conflict between some American Lenin and Martov might settle the future of revolution for a hundred years, but art young would hardly be involved in it. Among the evidence against the Alexander Kaun was advanced the fact that as a child he was brought up in a petty-bourgeois family, and that most of years before he became a writer he spent as a tramp and a jack-of-all-trades, rather than as a legitimate factory worker. In beginning the inquisitors had put up Demian Byedny as a model. They had preached, in fact, that they were going to “demianize” all art and literature.
