...Arts, “Review: ‘Hedda’ Fueled by Destruction,” April 26). I would like to inform everyone that both the production of Hedda Gabler and, crucially, Hedda herself were as good as Soskin’s review was ill-conceived.

On his watch, some 3,000 people were sentenced for political and religious crimes last year. Yet a growing number of activists who push for cautious change--like curbing the country's labor-camp gulags and ending arbitrary police detentions--take heart from Hu's reluctance to crack down on their efforts. Many see him as a pragmatist...
