Outrageous Demands. The two first meet in a magician's tent in 1925 as ten-year-old boys. Wirthof, a rich, aristocratic Aryan and the son of a crippled World War I general, is already arrogant and glib despite his pale blond fragility. Kazakh, son of an Aryan mother and a Jewish father who is killed as a heroic leader of the Social Democrat uprising in 1934, is a shy, sensitive boy, but stronger and taller than Wirthof. Kazakh easily wins the foot race that follows their initial encounter; yet he is able to realize even then that Wirthof...
...murders revolve around the book's two other supersymbols. The first is Lily, a flawless Aryan beauty who represents the unobtainable goal that drives idealists mad and causes them to commit atrocities in her name. Florian, her cynical panderer, is Brother Death himself. Lily's problem is that she is a nymphomaniac who is unable to achieve orgasm. Florian brings her an endless string of ardent customers whom he kills while they are trying vainly to satisfy the great ideal...
Apolitical as they are supposed to be, the Olympic Games rarely are free of political intrigue and controversy. In 1936, Adolf Hitler tried to make them a showcase for Aryan supremacy, and might have succeeded but for the herculean efforts of a U.S. Negro named Jesse Owens.

Issue 3, out last week, contains a story by Norman Mailer, The Taming of Denise Gondelman, about the heroic efforts of a blond Aryan to bring an intellectual Jewish girl to her first orgasm. It was published in 1959 as The Time of Her Time. A tale by Roald Dahl of a wily Arab who lures eligible young men to his home to make love to his daughter, a leper, appeared in Playboy three...
Across the huge land, almost equal in size to France, Germany, Spain and Italy combined, great factories are springing up everywhere-in Hamadan, once the capital of the Aryan Medes; in Tabriz, where Marco Polo was entertained by the mongol Khans; in Isfahan, whose fragrant splendors led the Arabs to call it "One Half of the World." The night sky flares bright in the oilfields of Abadan, where the Zoroastrians built fire temples over ducts of natural gas. A railroad is stretching out across the treacherous Dasht-i-Kavir Desert, once traversed only by spice caravans from the Orient...
