"(Mitya to Glikman, with the radio set to maximum blare so that no one 
could overhear: So Stalin, the Politburo and all the other brass hats 
are riding down the Volga in a big, you know, steamship, which suddenly, 
I suppose on account of, er, Trotskyite saboteurs, starts to sink.If it 
goes down instantly, who will be saved? Come on, Isaak Davidovich, it's 
easy: The people of the USSR!)"
--William T. Vollmann, "Europe Central", p. 152

It's a great novel, thanks for the recommendation.

Otto
