> whole chapters razored out

Hey ---

I never suspected Americans could be such barbarians.

:(

In this country people would rather steal books. A softer kind of
appropriation. At least such books would after some time surface
in some second-hand bookshop, with the owner's stamps carefully
removed.

In some cases - razored out.

A basic difference between communism and capitalism showing
itself in the book-lovers' use of razor-blades?

Hm--interesting question :)
At most univ. libraries in those days it wasn't easy to steal
books. It's easier now, as the moral fibre of the entire planet
is approaching senility if not there already.
