The Iron Heel of the Oligarchy

Nikolai is a Communist who wants things to return to the way they were before capitalism in Russia. He is unemployed and spends his time mostly in a bar, haranguing people on the evils of bloated capitalists. He picks up a series of women - including a singer, a prostitute and a secret agent - but instead of having sex with them he reads aloud chunks of Jack London's "The Iron Heel".
