Letter to Grigori Zinoviev, Between July 11 and 30, 1915
Published: First published in 1964 in Collected Works, Fifth (Russian) Ed., Vol. 49. Sent from SĂśrenberg to Hertenstein. Printed from the original.
Source: Lenin Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1977, Moscow, Volume 43, pages 460b-461a.
I am sending you the notebook: Inessa asks that it be returned when copied.[1]
I am sending Wijnkoopâs letter. Return it immediately (if useful, show it to Yuri). I shall snatch at this âlittle kernelâ of a Left International with both hands. We must work as hard as we can to get closer together with them. I am hurrying Radek to translate the Berne resolutions.[2]
I am sending the beginning of the pamphlet (in the rough) so that we can discuss how to continue the job and turn out a âwholeâ piece by two authors (show it, if useful, to Yuri; perhaps they will give some money for such a thing? If not, itâs not worth while showing the rough copy).[3]
Send your comments on a separate sheet.
Return immediately.
I think that, when edited, it may turn out a popular and important (both for Russia and for Europe) body of arguments and materials.
Regards,
Lenin
