...Needless to say, Engels made a major contribution to one of history's most hair-raising political adventure stories. Cast of millions. Final scenes yet to be written. Were he an American phenomenon, Engels would undoubtedly already have co-starred with Marx in a socialist version of a musical like 7776. In stead, he remains largely in the hands of ideologues, well-intentioned academ ics like Steven Marcus, professor of Eng lish at Columbia and author of a study of Victorian sexuality, The Other Victorians.

Even her vocal tricks - going from bass through squeak in breathtaking spoken roulades - now sound like a ventriloquist...

It is not clear to the black and white parents who continue to blame each other. And needless to say, it is not clear to the students who would have killed each other had the police not arrived...
