Extractions: The great Russian writer and playwright Isaac Babel was mentioned on this board because of his descriptions of Jewish life in Odessa. He was shot in 1940 on orders of Joe Stalin. This morning his daughter Natalie was interviewed by Dianne Riehm on National Public Radio. Natalie is the editor of a newly published edition of Babel's collected works. The interview was fascinating. Dianne Riehm's program is rebroadcast in the evening on many PBS stations. If you have any interest in the subject, I highly recommend tuning in.

Extractions: (b. July 13 [July 1, Old Style], 1894, Odessa, Ukraine, Russian Empired. March 17, 1941, Siberia, Russia, USSR), Soviet short-story writer noted for his war stories and Odessa tales. He was considered an innovator in the early Soviet period and enjoyed a brilliant reputation in the early 1930s. The "Odessa Tales" were published in collected book form in 1931. This cycle of realistic and humorous sketches of the Moldavankathe ghetto suburb of Odessavividly portrays the life-style and jargon of a group of Jewish bandits and gangsters, led by t heir "king," the legendary Benya Krik. Babel wrote other short stories, as well as two plays (Zakat, 1928; Mariya, 1935). In the early 1930s his literary reputation in the Soviet Union was high, but, in the atmosphere of increasing Stalinist cultural regimentation, Communist critics began to question whether his works were compatible with official literary doctrine. After the mid-1930s Babel lived in silence and obscurity. His last published work in the Soviet Union was a short tribute to Gorky in 1938. His powerful patron had died in 1936; in May 1939 he was arrested, and he died in a prison camp in Siberia. After Stalin's death in 1953, Babel was rehabilitated, and his stories were again published in the Soviet Union.
