 The Harvard Crimson :: News :: Stalin's Not-So-Willing Propagandist
Ehrenburg, probably unknown to most Americans only 30 years after his death, was one of the most famous Soviet writers from the 1930s to the 1960s, serving as the USSR's main cultural emissary to the West under Stalin and Khrushchev.

Ehrenburg and Lyubov Mikhailovna stayed with Irina and Boris Lapin on Lavrushinsky Lane in an imposing, grey stone, ten-story building constructed in the 1930s as a residence for literary figures.
Ehrenburg wrote hundreds of eloquent, angry pieces on the Spanish civil war, but it seems more than coincidental that the one article to cite General Astray's bloodcurdling cry came after Bukharin's trial, when Ehrenburg saw a close friend destroyed firsthand and had good reason to fear for his own life.
Ehrenburg by then no doubt understood how fortunate he had been in December 1934 not to have met Stalin personally; seeing the dictator face to face would have increased the likelihood of his arrest in the future.
