Not to worry; Szulc has a talent for cultivating his own scoops and controversies. In fact, he is unique among foreign-affairs reporters.

In fact, Tatlin! could be called the first collection of a new genre: the short story of ideas. Like the novel of ideas each story does not simply attempt to mirror reality but to create a new world of the imagination that is a separate and additional part of reality. In a way Davenport's stories are to literature what Frank Lloyd Wright's structuralist buildings are to architecture. They are both functional and graceful; their structure explains their function...
