your guns? Peter Verigan issues these deadly edicts
to his Doukhobor followers whose obedience is fatal.

BOOK TITLE:
‘Edicts of a Man-god’
Excerpts from this book:
…over a dozen women hiked up
their skirts and jumped over the flames with abandon, cackling gleefully at the
gaping spectators.
"What
a way to thaw a Siberian snatch!" someone breathed.
…Anton was surprised to hear
his own tormented sobs. For a moment it seemed as if this was happening to
someone else… Desperately, Anton moved with Barouk.
The pain lapped at him more gently now and dissolved... melting into liquid
ripples.
…"Here you would be
taken for a greedy robber molesting a dead or dying woman who can no longer
defend herself… her relatives or friends will look after her or take her body
and sell it to the University to be cut up."
… In her Turkish harem
costume, it appeared she was dancing for each man alone. Now Anton understood
what was causing the heavily charged atmosphere. No wonder everyone craved to
be chosen but only at the end of her dance would she offer herself to
someone.
“… they
will betray anyone in the hopes of shortening their prison terms. They know us,
but we don't always know them. That's why it has been necessary to make up a
secret word that is used, albeit with great risk, to try to identify true
believers.”
… two
hundred Cossacks charged the Doukhobor throngs, their
lead-tipped whips whistling peevishly through the hot, dusty air. A horn
sounded and the Cossacks withdrew to reveal a mass of writhing humanity,
screaming, crying and bleeding. Another bellow razed the air and soldiers
stampeded over the cowering martyrs again.
…After a prisoner was unchained he would run through
this hellish hallway while Cossacks used whatever arms they chose to hit him
and prevent him from completing the run alive.
…"I know you now!"
Anton interrupted him. "I am the real father of the two you pretend are
your children."
…"What's
the matter, Elena? Peter Verigan tells you not to
fuck and like a good little Doukhobor, you listen. Or, is it because you still love
him?"
…Now late afternoon, she heard the forlorn call of a
boat's horn echoing across the bay to the prison where fate had put her. That
mournful sound had come from Anton’s ship and he was leaving.
…"You never were a good wife!
But Hubanov gave you to me and by God, I intend to
keep you. You don't go whoring around with Cossack soldiers!" He shook her
until her teeth rattled. "You have robbed me of my manhood,"
… I have

Russian Recipe: Blintsi
(Russian crepes)
1
Combine
2 cups milk with ½ tsp baking soda and bring just to a boil (scalding). Set
aside to cool.
2
Beat 3 large eggs until foamy and add 1 tbsp
sugar and 1 tsp salt. Add 1 cup buttermilk and blend with a mixer. Add the
scalded milk along with 2 tbsp corn or canola oil.
3
Sift
together 2 ½ cups all purpose flour with 2 tbsp baking powder and add gradually
to the milk mixture. Taste batter to adjust sugar and salt seasoning.
4
Heat Teflon pan (or if you have a cast iron
pan) and brush a coating of oil on it. Using a ladle, pour a thin coating of
batter into the sizzling pan and rotate pan to spread it around evenly. Cook
only one side. Fold in half and remove from heat when bubbles are dry.
Replenish the coating of oil on the frying pan after cooking two or three blintsi.
5
Serve
with a mixture of ½ cup melted butter melted with ½ cup whipping cream brought
to boiling and mixed until blended. Bacon & soft boiled eggs, frozen
strawberries, jams and maple syrup are wonderful with blintsi.

About Gunther
Nowak & the ‘Sudetenlanders’ during and after
World War II:
BOOK TITLE: ‘You Flüchtling Whores!’
Excerpts from this book:
Two small silver bolts of lightning on their
collars shone in the grayness of the morning. The same crooked ‘S’ lightning
bolts glowed eerily on their black helmets. They looked ominous. Erwin, who
knew about the different uniforms from his Hitler Youth training, whispered,
“It’s the SS!”
“I am saying that you must get the hell out of
this bunker and run like the very devil is after you!” Otto chuckled.
“But…” I was about to ask why they
did not want our help.
“No buts!” Now Alex stood up. “This
is a suicide mission…”
Then I looked at the huge white letters stenciled
on the ugly red paint across the sides of the cars: ‘Open Only On The Order Of
Hitler’. My legs turned to jelly for a moment as I considered what Hitler would
do to us if we opened that train.
Silently I put my hands on a big rifle lying clear
of other guns and started to lift it. I managed to get it up without disturbing
its neighbours and stood up taking aim at the back of
the Black Russian’s head. I pulled the trigger and it went: ‘CLICK’. The last
thing I remember…
After more adjustment, a voice was finally heard
and the two thieves looked at it and at each other in amazement. They came
closer and peered at the front of the box, behind it and lifted it a little to
confirm the unit was sealed.
“There’s a wee little man inside
that box…
As the days passed, I became the soldiers’ pet and
was showered with a steady supply of chocolate and Camel or Lucky Strike
cigarettes. Throughout the day I could be seen sauntering around with a
chocolate bar in one hand and a cigarette in the other.
Suddenly there was shouting and a spot
light zeroed in on us.

In
retrospect, the Potsdam Protocol was a further punishment heaped on people who
had already been victimized after the first world war by world leaders through
the Versaille Treaty and then by world leaders
through the Munich Agreement and finally by the ‘pure blooded’ citizens of
their own countries. These measures were conceived and implemented by sane
minds of respected men, world leaders, who only considered land masses they
redistributed, like dealing a deck of cards, with no thought to the people who
called these lands their home.
The
tally of fatalities due to persecution for only two ethnic groups from World
War II was about six million Jews and over two million ethnic Germans, citizens

Recipe for Paprikas & Photo of Gunther
Bohemian Recipe made by Gunther’s mother who was a well known cook for Bohemian
gourmets: Paprikas (Good
with Chicken, but can be made with beef or veal with longer cooking times)
Ingredients:
Allow ½ chicken breast per person, cut into walnut sized cubes; Sauté on medium
heat, in large deep frying pan in butter (1tbsp for each ½
chicken breast, Note: butter achieves the flavour
required); Add ¼ onion
diced for each person and ½ tsp sweet Hungarian paprika for each whole chicken
breast being cooked; When all is browned, add ½ cup flour and ensure all the
chicken is coated with it. Add chicken broth to cover meat (use this for
veal also, but beef broth for beef) and while the broth is still cold, add
enough sour cream (up to one cup), whisked in to give the gravy a light, pastel
orange look for chicken & veal (darker for beef). Simmer chicken for no
longer than 30 minutes, while veal and beef may require 60 to 90 minutes
cooking time.
Cook authentic Russian and Bohemian food from unique recipes in the appendices of the novels.
