Thank you, Greg, your book was one of the ones I read the account in. You told both sides, and I believe Kurth did too, but unless I'm missing something Lovell only told Anna's version.
As his biographer, don't you think this action would be out of character for Felix? It seems to be from what I've read in your book, Lost Splendor, and even Maria Rasputin's book. He was never one to get vicious and attack anybody. Even in the murder of Rasputin he was scared, layed back, and even ended up fainting. I don't doubt at all she ran out of the room for some reason but it might not have been exactly the way she told it. But as you say, we probably can't totally believe him either.
