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 Andre Malraux's "Man's Fate."
