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.
