How would you interpret this sentence? How strange, that this is the wide-open moment Lev spent his life hoping for. With America brimming with brotherly love for the Soviets, our own laborers on the march, and Russia with everything to gain, it seems the right time to support them in tossing out Stalin’s bureaucrats and finishing the democratic socialist revolution as Lenin intended. Or, it could go the other way, our two nations falling apart like split kindling. Mr. Churchill seems to want that. “From the Baltic to the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended across the Continent.” How would you interpret this sentence: it seems the right time to support them in tossing out Stalin’s bureaucrats and finishing the democratic socialist revolution as Lenin intended? Does the pronoun ‘them’ refer to Russians? And how would you interpret the verb ‘support’ in the sentence? Who or what support them? The time, the opportunity supports them? Thanks! And it’s from The Lacuna by Kingsolver.
