Letter to Inessa Armand, March 13, 1917
Source: Lenin Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1977, Moscow, Volume 43, pages 615b-616a.
Dear Friend,
Obviously my former explanations of your silence were erroneous.
You did not âtake offenceâ, did you, at my writing you about your not having gone over the French text? Incredible! Incredible because Abramovich, too, wrote to me on the same subject. Besides, is it conceivable that anyone can take offence at such a thing?? Inconceivable!!
And on the other hand, the complete silence, for instance, on the question of the English translation is strange....
Of course, if you donât feel like answering, or even if you do, and have decided not to, I shall not pester you with my questions.
The Lefts in Switzerland have now scattered away from us both here and in Berne. (Things are good only with Abramovich and with you, as you have direct means of approach to the mass in lectures and Abramovich has them in personal contacts.)
The talks with Yuri & Co. for the publication by them of pamphlets endorsed by the CC section abroad are finished. This is welcome news!
From Russiaânothing, not even letters!! We are making arrangements via Scandinavia.
All the very best,
Yours,
Lenin
P.S. I am writing Usiyevich today in reply to his letter, in a spirit of âreconciliationâ.
