this highlights the murky world of Bolshevism, right from the beginning, with its culmination in terror under Stalin. It's not Stalin, so much as the system that results in Stalins rising to the top that is taken to task in this hard-hitting acerbic btu effective account of the criminality of state socialism
On page 205 Amis writes: "As he [Trotsky] lay dying in the hospital he had a strange visitor: the twenty-five year- old Saul Bellow (who remembers the stain of blood and iodine on Trotsky's short gray beard)." Amis fails to note that Bellows and his girlfriend had been working as secretaries for Trotsky; Bellows even wrote a book bragging about it: "Trotsky Dead"; Bellows' wife also memorialized her piece of the action in "Gloria Mundi" (by Eleanor Clark). A journalist who puts this information in a footnote but is unable to explain its political significance ought to adopt another profession ... clerk in a restaurant coatroom comes to mind.
Many critics have complained that Amis 'added no new historical material' in this book. Of course he didn't: he's a novelist, not a historian. But what he does is tell the story of the malevolent Georgian runt better than anyone before, against the background of the small clan of psychopaths and morons that formed Stalin's inner circle. Amis' prose is passionate and sardonic as usual, with moments of pure brilliance dotted about everywhere. All the important facts are there, related in a way at once compassionate and hilarious which compels you to read on,often laughing through tears.
A great work. Martin Amis at his best. A chilling portrait of Stalin, sometimes a baffoon sometimes a genius. Successful politicians tend to be ruthless, but in a grim survival of the fittest milieu of the Bolshevik state it seems that a man of Stalin's ability and Machiavellian brilliance would rise to the top. The amazing thing is that even today there are those among us who still deny the Ukrainian famine and the Great Famine or worse yet try to justify them.
"Koba" is an affecting, concise, and well-written "author's encounter" with the primary literature of the Lenin and Stalin years.If Amis had not personalized the narrative and also attempted to make it a literary effort, it could have been a deadly dull recitation of a period of horror. Fortunately, he writes about not just the historical facts, but also about what it is for a modern person to learn about these events, and compares the large-scale tragedy to relevant events in his own life. He also draws many perceptive conclusions.For example, he suggests that it's socially acceptable to laugh at Stalinism but not at Nazism. The reason for this, he argues, is not the mere gap between propoganda and reality (a problem for any government, it seems), but the perfect opposition of Stalinist propoganda and Soviet reality. The Nazis were, to a large extent, candid about what the evil was that they were trying to commit. Stalin was claiming the triumph of a workers' paradise (the high-minded ideal of Communism), while at the same time very intentionally doing everything possible to destroy human solidarity in order to maintain and increase his own power (the triumphant apex of the reactionary low-brow). Amis calls it "negative perfection". It's hard not to have an ironic laugh, though in full solidarity, with citizens who are told that utopia has finally arrived while their children are starving to death. The horror makes all the cheerleading instantly risible, or too absurd perhaps to deserve even a jeer.But this is not to say that "Koba" lacks for factual matter. In fact it is above all a history text, with as many names and dates and specific events as most readers could possibly desire. It is simply fortunate for us that Amis doesn't leave it there, but also provides ironic, penetrating commentary, and stories and events from his own life that resonate with the grand narrative.If you don't know much about this core piece of 20th Century history, Amis's survey could be the best available place to start learning, and I think that his thoughtful insights, high-minded though fluid and energetically terse style, and meticulous care for the English language are all very impressive.
This book concentrates on Stalin's abnormal psychology, and the impacts of his murderings on Russia, which was his greater victim. Amis is very good on the twisted workings of Stalin's mind. I read Francis Carr's "Ivan the Terrible" more or less simultaneously; the pathology was more or less the same. Ivan Grozny did even more damage to Russia than did Stalin.Amis also shows the moral putridity of the British intellectual class in confronting monstrosities.For bald narrative I would read Conquest first. For insider detail, Simon Sebag Montefiore's "Young Stalin" and "In the Court of the Red Tsar"; but for emotional impact, Amis is hard to beat, for this the most important maker of the modern world.
