Tender Octopi Episode #4. Russian Revolution 1917
In Tender Octopi podcast Episode 4 , Boris and Pavel discuss the freakin 10 days that shook the world which still keeps on shaking; the reception of the Russian Revolution of 1917 in the United States and Great Britain; Russia in Shadows, a book by H.G. Wells and John Reed's Ten Days that Shook The World; Sergei Witte and his role in the economy of the Imperial Russia; Emma Goldman and Alexander Beckman, the indomitable terrorist duo from Russia having a ball (and a chain) in the USA. The Red Scare One and the Red Ark full of undesirables shipped out from the American shore... And, a cherry on the layered cake, Pavel reads his short short story which squarely belongs in the self-styled genre of the kitsch kvetch.
