1 Case Of Comrade Tulayev Victor Serge, Willard R. Trask, Susan Sontag
New York Review of Books 1590170644 / 9781590170649 Paperback New 
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.

2 Unforgiving Years Victor Serge, Richard Greeman (Introduction)
NYRB Classics 1590172477 / 9781590172476 Paperback New 
Starred Review. Born in Brussels of Russian revolutionary exiles Serge (1890–1947) has long had a reputation as polemicist and journalist but this powerful novel of the descent into WWII makes a strong case for his political fiction. In the pressured atmosphere just preceding the outbreak of war a secret agent D. breaks with the Organization—Stalin's spy network—and escapes from Paris with his lover Nadine. With extreme paranoia that he cloaks in exquisite manners D. tells only one person where they are going: an old comrade named Daria. In the next flash-forward section Daria having been arrested is released from exile in a Soviet backwater and thrust into the siege of Leningrad. The third section opens in 1945 Berlin where Daria witnesses a host of Germans injured and half crazy try to survive aerial bombardment—a moment that as W.G. Sebald noted has been deeply underserved by literature. In the final section Daria escapes Europe and follows D. and Nadine to Mexico escaping (she thinks) the long reach of Stalin's agents. Serge remains sophisticated even during the book's more noirish moments and action sequences form an inseparable part of his hypnotic prophetic vision.
