East-West by ANDREI AMALRIK translated from the Russian by DANIEL WEISSBORT introduced by ALEXANDER LIEVEN Andrei Amalrik , who has been serving a term in a Soviet labour camp, is one of the most outspoken of the critics of the Soviet regime within the Soviet Union. This play, which to a certain extent was influenced by the writings of lonesco, is a grotesque fantasy, but it also contains a good deal about the atmosphere of life in the Soviet Union in recent times. with Barbara Mitchell and David Markham
