Summary "In het Hol van den Leeuw: Reisschetsen uit Sovjet-Rusland" by J. Fabius is a collection of travel sketches written in the early 20th century. The book offers a vivid account of the author's travels through post-revolutionary Eastern Europe, focusing on the sociopolitical context of the region as it grapples with the aftermath of World War I and the Russian Revolution. Through the author's observations, readers are likely to explore the complexities of various national identities and the turbulent political landscape of the time, particularly in Soviet Russia." "The opening of the book sets the stage for Fabius's journey as he prepares to travel eastward from Berlin to East Prussia. Struggling with travel logistics amidst a chaotic post-war environment, he shares his reflections on the socio-political climate, revealing the tension between different national groups and the changing dynamics of power. In his encounters with various figures, including authorities and fellow travelers, he begins to grasp the complex issues at play, such as the Polish-German tensions and the role of Bolsheviks in the region. Fabius's journey is not just a physical traversal, but also an exploration of the intricate and often tumultuous relationships among the peoples and nations of Eastern Europe during this historical period."
