My dear Mr Che,

  I am far from sure what you have in mind when you speak of parallels.  The
French Revolution began with hope of a better freer world and an end to
arbitrary government.  It descended into bloodshed and terror.  And it
finally yielded arbitrary government - a more effective one, to be sure, but
that is not something the peoples of Europe rejoiced in.  In vain do I
search for resemblances between this and my book.  You must prompt me if you
wish me to discover something here.

Faithfully yours,


Charles Dickens
