# Comrade Morozov — Red Dusk and the Morrow character guide

> Comrade Morozov in Red Dusk and the Morrow by Paul Dukes.

**Role:** supporting

**Also known as:** Morozov

**First appearance:** 0004-i-one-of-the-crowd

## Snapshot

A Bolshevik comrade whose name hovers over the city's new order, invoked in the same breath as theatre seats and gallows.

## Who they are

Comrade Morozov belongs to the class of men the narrator must flatter and evade — the 'comrades' whose devotion to the Soviet regime buys a little safety and a lot of unease. He is felt rather than seen in the early chapters, a name that colours conversations about who now fills the Marinsky and who deserves to hang. His presence sharpens the book's central tension: in a city where everyone performs loyalty, even a casual remark can be a confession.
