DANIEL, Yuli (Markovich)

DANIEL, Yuli (Markovich)
(1925-1988)
   Russian author who wrote as Nikolai Arzhak; he lived in exile after having been imprisoned in 1966 along with his dissident friend, Andrey SINYAVSKY (Abram Tertz), for the writings translated as This is Moscow Speaking, and Other Stories (written before 1966; trans Stuart Hood and others 1968 UK). The title story is of sf interest: 10 August 1960 is declared to be Public Murder Day; the point is satirical. The eponymous character in "The Man from MINAP" has the power of predetermining the sex of any child from his loins.
