AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Russian tale of a group of young artists, writers and doctors, including Dostoieffsky, who are betrayed to the secret police by one of their members. He asks to be treated the same as the others so they may not know his guilt, and later pardon - but when he is led to the field of execution he fears for his life. The pardon, when it comes, is too late as he has died of fright. Competent. (PB)
