Lev Davidovich rules!

Though my personal heroine remaines Rosa L, this is a fine story on Trotsky...

Did you know that the title of the film "Life is beautiful" was taken by Roberto Benigni from Trotsky's testament, (after Leon's own children were murdered by Stalin and in the face of the great purges and the rise of Nazism)...
