The Suicide by NIKOLAI ERDMAN translated and adapted for radio by PETER TEGEL with and
Nikolai Erdman was one of the youngest Russian talents of the 1920s and deeply admired by Maxim Gorky. The Mandate was the first of two fierce comedy satires. His second, The Suicide, was banned in Russia in the 1930s and has never been performed there. The main character is asked to commit suicide ' since death can say what the living only dare to think '.
