Some literary criticism from the Soviet Union:
Kolkhoz chairman G. Sitalo… reeled off a lot of farm production figures – 1,250 thousands poods of grain… 200 thousands poods of oil cake… the general conclusion to be drawn from these figures was unambiguous: ‘ We were glad to hear the news that Pasternak… has been expelled from the Union of Soviet Writers.’
