(From the publisher):
The Red Laugh was written in 1904 during the uncertain period following Russia's ignominious defeat at the hands of the Japanese. It is the feverish and fragmentary monologue of a Russian officer, overcome by the horror of man's inhumanity and driven to seek refuge in insanity.
