Vera; or, The Nihilists concerns a plot to kill a tsar but after Alexander II was assassinated, its London premiere was cancelled. Now receiving a rare production, it captures his conflict between ethics and aestheticsWho wrote the following: “When private property is abolished, there will be no necessity for crime”?
