Thoughts on Boris Savinkov's writings? Pale horse, memoirs of a terrorist etc. Worth reading?
>>24972403I read Pale Horse, it was self aggrandising bullshit that said nothing about the times he lived in. I was left with the impression that he was a Chris McCandless rather than a Spartacus.
>>24972403I wonder how many of his colleagues turned out to be secret police.Pale Horse is meh, his memoirs are more interesting. It's a good read when you know a bit about revolutionary terrorism in Imperial Russia. Histrionic moralfags blow up people to gain political concessions and end up hindering reform to the point where a group of more grounded moralfags comes into power and kills them all. it's all very interesting.
>>24972403I liked the pale horse and the black horse a lot. I would even count the pale horse among my favourites.
