Hi,

RVR is a raaLLab(h)anDi venkaTaeSwara raavu.
(The name even when expanded rings no bell in my memory, though!)
Sree RVR had worked in Moscow for a dozen years or so.
He is in India now. Somewhere in Tanuku or in Telengana.

The erstwhile Foreign Languages Publications in the then USSR
later diversified into Progress, Raduga and Mir publications.
The first (Progress) for books relating to politics, economics, marxism
and such, the second (Raduga) for works of fiction and the last
(Mir) for books on sciences.

I pray god that the book you have reading is a work of fiction.
If it's so, i am right.  Otherwise, don't blame me.

Afterall, no work can be class-value-neutral in the then USSR.
Even chess was inextricable linked to THE party, class conciousness etc..

BTW, this information comes from Sree niDamarti umaaraajaeSwara raavu
another translator who worked in Moscow.
