In Revolt

This article discusses two books "The Bandits (Les Haidoucs)," by Panait Istrati, and "A Young People," by Hans E. Knick. Both these novels are of revolt caused by such suffering, but one is of Rumania, the other of Norway, and the greatest difference between them is a matter of spirit, the kind of spirit that is accounted for by that complex relationship called "race." Panait Istrati's outlaws drive their vengeance with the same speed and skill with which they ride their stallions, Hans Kinck's peasant rises heavily and in spite of his stupidity. Both succeed, although neither follows Marx.
