...head only six men had got out. One gasped a dreadful story: he smelled bitter smoke, dashed with five friends for the elevator, made it to the surface only seconds ahead of a belch of yellow smoke and rearing flames. Apparently a horse-drawn cart had jumped its rails in one of the galleries, tearing into a high-tension cable, setting off a short circuit, explosion and fire...

Moldovan's Cyrano de Bergerac nose is unnecessary to show that he is a sot, but this does not detract from his relaxed, happily debauched portrayal.

...Indian hospitality. Nehru received such ovations in Russia that all Indians would be ashamed if the Indians would not return to the Soviet leaders a hundredfold what Nehru received in Russia.
