Beskrivelse af Out of the Night
Out of the Night is an autobiographical account of the life of Jan Valtin, a former member of the German Communist Party and a leader of the underground Communist movement in China during the 1920s and 1930s. The book details Valtin's experiences as a revolutionary and his eventual disillusionment with the Communist Party. Valtin's story begins with his childhood in Germany and his early involvement in leftist politics. He joined the Communist Party in the late 1920s and became a key figure in the underground Communist movement in China, where he was involved in espionage, sabotage, and other revolutionary activities. Valtin's account of his time in China is particularly vivid, with descriptions of gun battles, assassinations, and other violent encounters. He also provides insight into the inner workings of the Communist Party and the challenges faced by revolutionaries trying to overthrow the government. However, as Valtin becomes more disillusioned with the Communist Party and its tactics, he begins to question his own involvement in the movement. He eventually defects to the United States, where he is arrested and put on trial for his activities. Out of the Night is a fascinating and often harrowing account of one man's journey through the world of revolutionary politics. It provides a unique perspective on the Communist movement in the early 20th century and sheds light on the human toll of political extremism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
