Books are hope

Was reading about a Soviet trade fair in North Korea. There was a stand displaying Russian literature translated into Korean. Even in that dark dictatorship they had Tolstoy, Pushkin, Dostoevsky, Chekhov. 

I was looking at the books piled round my flat and thinking how they give me an umbilical cord to the great minds of history.
