...here, but since some never become familiar you would hardly foresee the patient, particular realism which makes this German "Enoch Arden" into living, modern truth, or guess the force of the emotion shaping the layers of incident to an ending stripped of grandiloquence. Struggling to get out of Siberia, the two comrades (there are only three people in the cast) thirst in a desert composed obviously of flour, shavings, and papier-mâché; their thirst, however, is real, their momentary, flaring hatreds, their gestures toward heroism, renunciation, their final acceptance of themselves, all these are real, surviving buoyantly...
Professor Leonide Kulik, Russian scientist who risked his life to look a little longer on a stone, last week "was rescued by the relief expedition sent into the tundra wilderness of Siberia to seek him. No marvel of jasper or onyx, this; it is a large rock with a fused crust, composed of iron and silicates.

Battling with these books' of pure Soviet origin are three others: 1) The Real Situation in Russia by Leon Trotsky,* presenting the exiled Jew Militarist's passionate case against Gentile Dictator Stalin; 2) Incredible Siberia* wherein a Chicago Daily News correspondent hears U.S. drummers' jokes told in ultima thule smoking cars; and 3) The Mind and Face of Bolshevism† still the latest and most potent Teutonic indictment of Soviet culture. Flayed in the latter book is the famed epic poem of Bolshevism, 150 Million, .by Comrade Poet Maiakovski...
