_SOME PRESS NOTICES OF_
_SANINE_
“_It has a treble interest. It discusses sex-problems with unusual
candour … it gives a vivid picture of Russian life … and it reflects
the welter of thoughts and aspirations which are common to the whole
contemporary Western world_.”
NEW STATESMAN.
“_A book which deals with powerful human passions in no lethargic way.
It may horrify by its brutality, and its assault on ordinary morality
may well be considered startling: yet it counts for something that M.
Artzibashef does not display the common fear of life_.”
STANDARD.
“_It is of the greatest interest psychologically, as an outstanding
product of a despairing epoch in Russian history_.”
DAILY CHRONICLE.
“_The artistry of the novel, brutal, direct, detached, courageous,
desperately poignant, is not to be disputed_.”
EVENING STANDARD.
“_The strength of the book is undeniable_”
SUNDAY TIMES.
“_This is a strong and fascinating story depicting the unfettered life
of a young Russian … the background of society and Russian scenery is
excellent_.”
