144. Victor Serge, Anarchist Bolshevik -- Mitchell Abidor

Today Mitch Abidor joins me to discuss Victor Serge: acclaimed novelist, anarchist, Bolshevik, anticommunist, and all-around 20th century contradiction. Mitch and I discuss the legend of Serge, what's true about it, and the ways that Serge fails to live up to the legend.

You can find Mitch's writing all over the place, but here's a good place to start: https://jewishcurrents.org/author/mitchell-abidor

And here's the NYRB page for Serge's work: https://www.nyrb.com/collections/victor-serge
