...panegyric of Pasternak? His poetry is rubbish, and his Doctor Zhivago is puny. Zhivago is remote to any feeling of responsibility in the midst of great nationwide suffering. He is more concerned with bread and potatoes than with "the sanctity of every man's soul under...
Beautiful Name. Every Frenchman, rich or poor, peasant or city dweller, would feel the effect. Without food subsidies the price of bread would rise 6%, milk 5%, macaroni 10%.

When he took over five years ago, he said, Soviet agriculture was in "a very bad state," its grain output so low that cities suffered from bread shortages, its livestock population dying by the millions for lack of fodder. Only the year before, Malenkov, "to conceal the failures under his direction," had "dishonestly" put out "humbug" figures purporting to show that the country had produced 145 million tons of grain, when in cold fact it had harvested...
