«Una storia di lealtà e tradimento. Di delitto e castigo. L'epopea di un terrorista che era anche un poeta. Tutto questo è Jakov Blumkin. L'eroe che, sopravvissuto alle situazioni più estreme, fu tradito dal suo amore per una rivoluzionaria intrepida come lui, in nome degli interessi superiori di una Rivoluzione, essa stessa tradita. Solo adesso ho capito che ero ossessionato da lui perché volevo raccontare un fallimento: quello di una generazione, la mia, che voleva cambiare il mondo. Volevo tornare al tempo in cui le masse irrompevano sul palcoscenico della Storia, ed era la Storia in persona che dettava le sue parole.» Un passato bolscevico riemerge da un baule in una casa lungo la Marna. Un trasloco, una storia privata e una storia pubblica, due vite che si intrecciano, quella personale di Christian Salmon e quella di un personaggio leggendario della Rivoluzione d'Ottobre, Jakov Blumkin. Inizia così il viaggio di Salmon che insegue in tutta Europa la vita epica di Blumkin e al tempo stesso la sua stessa vita, il tempo in cui era stato anche lui un bolscevico. Un bolscevico per modo di dire, certo, ma pur sempre un bolscevico. Blumkin era un čekista e un poeta, un mistico e un assassino, fu amico dei più grandi poeti e dei boia della Lubjanka. Era l'uomo dai mille volti: ora il viso sfilato, ora appesantito; in alcune foto sembra avere vent'anni, in altre ne dimostra quaranta. Eppure era lo stesso uomo, Jakov Blumkin, alias 'Il Lama', alias 'Sultano Zade'. O 'Živoj' che significa 'il Vivo', come lo aveva soprannominato Majakovskij una sera che lo aveva incontrato in uno dei caffè letterari alla moda che frequentava. Ma per altri era un personaggio di finzione inventato e lanciato nel mondo dai servizi segreti sovietici come copertura per ogni affare losco. La sua breve apparizione sulla terra resterà segnata da due colpi di pistola: quello che sparò all'ambasciatore tedesco il 6 luglio 1918 e quello che mise fine alla sua vita il 3 novembre 1929, quando non aveva ancora trent'anni. Fra queste due detonazioni, la vita di Blumkin si dispiega in un cielo di congetture, come un fenomeno luminoso che si consuma sotto i nostri occhi.

This page-turning biographical novel follows the footsteps of a forgotten legend of the Russian Revolution, from Odessa to Moscow, Istanbul, and beyond. Yakov Blumkin claimed to have had nine lives. Born to a poor Jewish family and orphaned as a child, he was a Socialist Revolutionary, a terrorist, the assassin of the German ambassador Wilhelm von Mirbach, a poet close to the avant-garde, a member of Cheka, a military strategist, a secret agent, and Leon Trotsky’s secretary. Executed in 1929 on Stalin’s orders at the age of only twenty-nine, he has continued to inspire a powerful curiosity, and wild rumors and falsehoods about his extraordinary life abound today. As a young man in 1980s Paris, Christian Salmon identified strongly as a Bolshevik, drawn to the glorious October Revolution immortalized in literature and films such as Warren Beatty’s Reds and Sergei Eisenstein’s trilogy. Picking up the thread of his dream thirty years later, he sets out to reconstruct Blumkin’s shadowy past and ever-shifting identity with a trove of manuscripts, documents, rare photographs, and personal souvenirs.

Politics is no longer the art of the possible, but of the fictive. Its aim is not to change the world as it exists, but to affect the way that it is perceived. In Storytelling Christian Salmon looks at the twenty-first century hijacking of creative imagination, anatomizing the timeless human desire for narrative form, and how this desire is abused by the marketing mechanisms that bolster politicians and their products: luxury brands trade on embellished histories, managers tell stories to motivate employees, soldiers in Iraq train on Hollywood-conceived computer games, and spin doctors construct political lives as if they were a folk epic. This "storytelling machine" is masterfully unveiled by Salmon, and is shown to be more effective and insidious as a means of oppression than anything dreamed up by Orwell.

"First published in 1965 and reprinted many times in the Soviet Union and Russia, Yury Olesha's No Day without a Line is a series of thematically assembled journal entries which together form an unusual and extremely engaging personal memoir." "Ranging from Olesha's prerevolutionary childhood, to notable cultural figures, to Russian and Western literature, the entries are artfully composed units in which an image is developed, a memory precisely delineated, or an apercu elaborated. Occasionally, the units coalesce in a chain of reflections on a common theme, such as Olesha's memories of the 1905 Potyomkin mutiny, his recollections of the poet Mayakovsky, or his discussion of the writings of Tolstoy or Hemingway." --Book Jacket.
