...group was split on actual policy considerations. The statement began, "We are a group of citizens whose views differ as to the proper method of ending the war in Vietnam...
Russia's greatest living writer is very seldom read these days in his own country. A former prison camp inmate whose evocative historical novels have dealt bluntly with the repressions of the Stalin era, Alexander Solzhenitsyn is excluded from official Moscow literary circles.

Totally apolitical, Elmyr was nevertheless shipped off to a Transylvanian concentration camp. "I was," he says with Magyar flair, "obviously too colorful a person for the safety of the state." He survived the Carpathian winter by painting...
