The Case of Comrade Tulayev
One cold Moscow
night, Comrade Tulayev, a high government official, is shot dead on the
street, and the search for the killer begins. In this panoramic vision
of the Soviet Great Terror, the investigation leads all over the world,
netting a whole series of suspects whose only connection is their
innocence—at least of the crime of which they stand accused. But The Case of Comrade Tulayev,
unquestionably the finest work of fiction ever written about the
Stalinist purges, is not just a story of a totalitarian state. Marked by
the deep humanity and generous spirit of its author, the legendary
anarchist and exile Victor Serge, it is also a classic twentieth-century
tale of risk, adventure, and unexpected nobility to set beside Ernest
Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls and André Malraux's Man's Fate.
