Thanks to the taxidermist's art, Dzerzhinky's far better known boss is still on display in Moscow, stuffed like a prize tarpon. Is one to be that much more distressed by the crowds that still shuffle past to see his remains?
Some people argue that it is a wax likeness, not taxidermy. But still people come to see whatever-it-is and sometimes they bring flowers. Heavens! What a story for the L. A. Times!
Enjoy your worries. I do not share them and I do not take drugs.
Russia has a difficult past. Most of their heroes and leaders are terribly flawed. However, resurrecting Dzerzhinsky is quite different than removing Lenin. It's a sign that Russians are increasingly dissatisfied with their present society...and increasingly desperate. A small sign? Perhaps. But not to be ignored.
