Polish-British writer Joseph Conrad wrote a novel called The Secret
Agent in which one of the chief protagonists is an Anarchist/Communist
agitator who's in the quest to develop a so-called "perfect detonator"
for the bombs he plans to hand out to whoever's dumb enough to throw
or plant them in the cause of sweeping aside the hated Capitalist
system and ushering in a Commie utopia and 'government by the
Proletariat' in Edwardian Britain. Kind of reminded me of Bill Sloman
or Bitrex.
