Yay finally people who are doing TKAM I swear everyone else is doing OMAM!
This is kind of random, but revising AIC now I was looking at the quote "except of course Russia, which will always be behind hand naturally"(Mr. Birling) Our teacher told us this was because Russia was communist, and therefore this shows how Mr. Birling disagrees with communism. However, when the play was set (1912) Russia was still Tsarist.
Is it a slip-up from Priestley or is there some other reason this part is mentioned?
