Summary: When criminals took the power in Russia
Comment: Ouspensky is known for his philosophical books and particularly for "In Search of the Miraculous", in which he wrote about the teaching of G. I. Gurdjieff 1915-1918 in Russia.

This book is a criticism of the Bolschevik revolution. It was written in the midst of the happenings describing much of the madness while it was going on.

The letters were smuggled to the recipient, A. R. Orage, the editor of the literary magazine "The New Age" in London. (Ouspensky had been reading the magazine and met Orage before travelling to India in his "search for an esoteric school" in around 1915 and met Orage also on his way back to Russia.

The book has an excerpt from Bechhofer's "In Denikin's Russia and the Caucasus, 1919-1920" with Ouspensky's discovery in the harsh circumstances while warming the inner man with Vodka: "In spite of centuries of consumption of Vodka there is nothing that goes better with it than salted cucumber".
